What Size Solar Battery Do YOU Need?
Reps oversize for commission. Some installers undersize to win the quote. We give you the right answer. Free, 2 minutes.
Where do you want to install your battery?
The problem with every solar quote you've gotten so far…
They're designed to sell you something.
Not to help you make a decision.
Sales reps rattle through technical specs at warp speed, then push for a signature before you've had a second to think.
Their eyes are on their commission, not your priorities.
One installer swears their system is perfect.
Another says the exact opposite.
Neither explains why in a way that relates to YOUR home, your energy use, or your budget.
And good luck getting real-world numbers instead of theoretical best-case bollocks based on the fantasy that you'll only ever use electricity when the sun is shining.
Put all this together, and finding straight answers is like searching for a needle in a very shitty haystack.
We've been where you are, and we can help.
Our 2-minute quiz cuts through the BS and tells you straight:
- The panels, batteries, and inverters that will suit your home
- The system size that works for your roof, your energy use, and your budget
- Real costs, real payback, and the stats to back them up
- Which brands to trust
- Red flags to help you spot the cowboys from a mile away
We'll even tell you how we worked it all out so you can see for yourself.
Because once you know what your home needs, and you have real-world numbers for your usage patterns, everything else becomes really simple.
And getting that information takes 2 minutes.
And avoid paying for some shit you don't need
We're Solar Sherpa. And we've helped hundreds of homeowners through the same jungle you're stuck in right now.
Like Kenneth Wright, who said, "The solar industry is an absolute minefield, but Solar Sherpa showed me a way through. I'm now saving £1,140 a year with a payback of about 8 years on my panels."
Or Bob Wilson, "I had six quotes ranging from £5,900 to £12,400 for basically the same thing. Solar Sherpa helped me pick the right one at £7,200, and now we're saving £850 a year."
Or John Wybrow, who told us, "Solar Sherpa stopped me from making an expensive mistake. The advice and guidance is excellent."
And, we don't want to be dicks about this, but time really is running out.
While you're comparing quotes and vetting installers, something bigger is happening to the UK energy grid.
The American investment firm, Blackstone, is quietly building a £10bn electricity black hole in the UK.
They're investing £10bn in an AI data centre near Newcastle.
A building the size of 10 gigantic shopping centres, running AI and cloud services 24/7.
Energy experts are already sounding the alarm.
Because more demand on the grid means higher electricity prices for consumers.
In the US, the cost of electricity has increased 267% in areas with data centres (Bloomberg).
That's coming to the UK.
And it's not just Blackstone.
Nearly 100 other data centres are coming online in the UK over the coming years.
So, you can either get energy independence now with financial incentives and lower installation costs.
Or you can wait and join the panic buying when Blackstone flips the switch.
Who do you want to be?
The person scrabbling around with the rest of the crowd?
Haggling with installers who are so in demand that they don't need your business?
Or the one who got ahead of the curve by generating your own power?
Do your future self a favour
If you like what you see in your personalised report, there's more help at hand.
We can match you with 2 or 3 trustworthy installers who've already passed a rigorous vetting process.
And we mean rigorous.
We don't just check a company's public reviews for things like quality of service and after-sales care. We also dig deep into their financials, internal feedback, their product offerings, and the background of the management team.
We've even sat in on calls with customers, listening to sales pitches and checking for dubious claims.
And we know the proof is in the pudding, so we get out to meet installers and check their work.
This means we reject 87% of the installers we look at.
So, you get direct access to the best, and it won't cost you a penny.

This sounds great, but what do you guys get out of it?
I mean, yeah, we've got to eat, too.
Once an installer passes our tough vetting process, they pay us a small fee to be included on our list. We clear out the chaff, you don't get ripped off, and they don't have to shout to be heard above the cowboys.
Everyone's happy.
We're not installers. And honestly, you don't want us on your roof (especially not Gustav).
But that's exactly the point. We've got no skin in the game.
We're not pushing Fox ESS because we need to hit a quota. Or Sigenergy because we've got a couple hundred units in the warehouse we need to shift.
We just want you to get the system that actually makes sense for you.
We'll even give you a bunch of other free tools to help get the job finished.
You'll get our handy BS-busting checklist that demystifies tech jargon. So you'll forever know your way around a quote.
And you'll get access to our Solar Savings Calculator. So, you can compare real numbers on projected monthly savings and a clear return on investment.
Cut through the jargon, find the tech YOU need, calculate your actual ROI, and compare quotes like an expert
Our solar story started like yours…
Back in 2019, our founder, Alex, felt like solar was an obvious win-win.
Save money, save the planet.
But then he landed in the jungle…
Every sales rep said the same thing: "Trust me, I'm different." They weren't.
One rep even warned about bankrupt companies, only for his company to vanish two months later. Gone. With people's deposits.
'Sign now or lose thousands!'
'This deal expires at midnight!'
'Last chance for this price!'
Alex wasn't finding help. He was finding predators.
So he decided to take control.
He dove into the research, studied technical specs, and buried himself in quotes and calculations.
Frustration turned to fuel, and pretty soon, Alex could hold his own with any installer out there.
That's why we started Solar Sherpa, to help other homeowners get the solar systems they need.
While clearing out the cowboys.
And now you can have all that data for free.
I'm willing to bet that there's a spreadsheet open on your laptop, and three browser tabs comparing battery specs.
Along with a quote from last week that you still haven't responded to because you're not sure if a 6.2kW inverter is enough or overkill.
All while you're still pissing money away on your energy bills.
Don't get ripped off. Get the facts.
We're cleaning up the solar market.
You want to make the right decision. I reckon we'll get on.
