This project blends elegant aesthetics with powerful performance to help homeowners embrace a low-carbon lifestyle and future-proof their homes for years to come.
A Future-Ready Solar Energy System
This forward-looking household sought a reliable, intelligent energy solution that could deliver immediate cost savings and long-term sustainability while maintaining the clean look of their home.
With energy prices on the rise and climate concerns at the forefront, they chose Now EV to design and install a system that offers:
High-efficiency solar generation
Smart energy storage and monitoring
Aesthetically pleasing, durable design
Scalable and future-proof infrastructure
Our tailored solution doesn't just meet their needs today — it's built to adapt and evolve with future energy demands, electric vehicle integration, or potential grid changes.
Project Overview
For this project, our expert team installed:
10 AIKO Neostar 455W All-Black Panels offer excellent energy conversion and sleek curb appeal. These N-Type modules are engineered for superior low-light performance, ideal for the UK's variable weather.
GivEnergy Hybrid 5.0kW Inverter Gen 3 is a powerful yet compact hub that easily handles solar production, battery management, and grid connectivity. It includes built-in WiFi and LAN for seamless real-time monitoring.
GivEnergy 9.5kWh Li-Ion Battery Gen 2 provides plug-and-play energy storage with an industry-leading 12-year warranty. It ensures homeowners can store excess energy during evenings, peak demand, or outages.
Van der Valk Mounting System is precision-engineered to deliver rock-solid support and is tailored to the roof's unique layout.
The bird-blocking mesh protects the system and local wildlife by preventing nesting under the panels—a simple yet essential addition for long-term efficiency.

Harnessing the Power of the Sun with AIKO Neostar Panels
We strategically installed 10 AIKO Neostar 455W all-black solar panels to maximise energy production throughout the year. Known for their high output and premium appearance, these panels integrate seamlessly into the home's modern architecture.
Their N-type cell technology ensures excellent performance in cloudy conditions — ensuring clean energy is generated year-round. Their ultra-sleek look complements the home's exterior, enhancing performance and property value.
Smart Energy Management with GivEnergy Technology
The GivEnergy Hybrid 5.0kW Inverter Gen 3 is at the core of the system. More than just an inverter, this device intelligently manages energy flow between the solar panels, battery, and grid.
Its integrated WiFi and LAN connectivity allow the system to be monitored and adjusted remotely, giving homeowners complete control over their energy use and savings. It's also future-ready, supporting smart home integration and EV charging compatibility.
Reliable Energy Storage with a 9.5kWh GivEnergy Battery
Energy independence was a top priority for the family. The GivEnergy 9.5kWh Li-Ion Battery Gen 2 provides the perfect solution.
It allows them to store excess solar energy during the day for use at night or during grid interruptions. With an extended 12-year warranty and robust safety features, this battery is built for peace of mind and long-term performance. Its compact, wall-mounted design is ideal for homes with limited space.

Built to Last — Protected by Design
We added bird-blocking mesh to ensure the installation remains efficient and hassle-free. This vital component:
Prevents nesting under the panels
Reduces the risk of debris accumulation
Preserves the system's aesthetics and airflow
It's a small touch that makes a big difference in longevity and performance.
Remote Monitoring for Real-Time Insights
Through the GivEnergy platform, the homeowners can now:
Track their solar generation and battery charge
Monitor energy consumption trends
See savings grow in real-time
This kind of transparency empowers them to make smarter energy decisions while enjoying a tangible return on their investment. They can even track seasonal performance trends and optimise energy use for further efficiency gains.
A Smarter, Greener Home Starts Here
With reduced reliance on the grid, lower energy bills, and full control over their energy usage, this family lives in a future-ready home — powered by the sun.
