Start saving energy with solar panels & Energy storage
Why Solar?
The UK government has became the first major economy in the world to pass laws to end its contribution to global warming by 2050. With changes in technology, efficiencies & lowered costs, there has never been a better time to harness the sun's free energy.
Whilst the Feed in Tariff has now been replaced by the Solar Export Guarantee & variable tariffs, becoming energy independent & reducing our carbon footprint has never been more important.
Whether you're interested in doing your bit for future generations or reducing your dependance on the electricity supply grid by energy saving , get in touch today for a free energy appraisal for your property.
Vector Projects Ltd are your local solar panel & battery storage installer with over 14 years of experince serving Basingstoke, Reading, Farnham & beyond.

- Market leading warranties.
Monitoring
Solaredge optimisers report to the free online monitoring portal providing real time information for solar generation, power import & export, battery status , water heater diverter (if applicable) & individual panel performance. Custom set alert provide a range of notifications such as low & non production providing a detailed window into system perfomance.
Water Heating using excess PV generation
Excess solar energy normally exported to the grid can be captured by devices such as batteries, EV chargers or even a proportional water heater diverter, sending only the excess energy to the hot water cylinder immersion element.
We recommend the following water heater diverters:
- Eddi by Myenergy
- Iboost
- Smart energy Hot Water by Solaredege
Energy Storage Systems
Energy Storage Systems (Batteries) capture excess solar generation or lower rate energy for use during non-daylight hours, peak times or even during power outages.
We offer the following domestic storage products:
- Tesla Powerwall
- Energy bank
- BYD
- Myenergi Libbi
- Givenergy
- Puredrive
Virtual power plants
Virtual power plants such as those featured in Puredrive & givenergy energy storage systems, link with energy providers such as 'Octopus Agile or Flux' to use powerful algorithms to understand your energy consumption usage & then make use of cheap rate & sometimes even negative rate energy, to charge your battery preventing you from using a higher rate when required.
