Solar and Battery Systems
Discover how you can take control of your energy with solar and battery systems through Octopus Energy’s network of installers. We connect you with experienced professionals who design and install systems tailored to your home and combine them with our innovative energy plans to maximise the return on your investment.
Why choose a Solar and Battery system?
Switching to a solar and battery system offers a range of benefits that make sense for your home and the planet. By generating your own electricity, you can significantly lower or even eliminate power bills and gain additional savings by selling excess energy back to us. A battery system further enhances these benefits by allowing you to store energy for use when power is most expensive and providing reliable backup power during outages, ensuring peace of mind. Best of all, using renewable energy helps reduce your carbon footprint, contributing to a more sustainable future.

OctopusFlexi
OctopusFlexi is designed to give you the ultimate freedom and flexibility in how you power your home. With no lock-in contracts, competitive pricing, and a leading solar buyback rate (for systems with generation capacity under 10kW), OctopusFlexi makes it simple to take control of your energy.
Working on Sunshine
Unlike standard electricity plans that charge the same rate around the clock, Working On Sunshine rewards smart energy usage. By shifting your power-intensive activities to when the sun is shining, you'll benefit from reduced rates.
OctopusPeaker
OctopusPeaker suits households with a battery who can export into the peak and shift their electricity usage to off-peak times of day or those with a generation capacity above 10kW. By shifting your usage out of the peak and maximising your exports during Peak times you can get the most value out of this plan.
Zero Bills
Zero Bills is made possible through a combination of solar panels and battery, optimised by Octopus and sized to match your normal usage to keep you comfortable and your bills zero. Using smart technology we control your battery system allowing you to use electricity normally without worrying about bills.
