Find the right solution for your home
Renewable energy can look different for every property.
Perhaps you’re still relying on an oil boiler. Maybe you’re interested in generating your own electricity, adding battery storage or exploring a different way to heat your home.
Whatever your starting point, The Green CrossRoad can help you explore suitable installer options based on your property, your priorities and what you want to achieve.
You don’t need to be a renewable energy expert. That’s what the initial conversation is for.
Considering an alternative to your oil boiler?
If your home currently relies on oil for heating and hot water, you may be exploring alternatives.
An air source heat pump extracts heat from the outside air and uses it to provide heating and, where configured, hot water for your property.
Whether a heat pump is suitable depends on factors such as your home’s heat demand, insulation, existing heating system and the proposed design.
The right installer will need to assess your property and explain the options available.
How The Green CrossRoad can help
We’ll discuss your requirements, understand what you’re hoping to achieve and help identify suitable installers to assess your property and provide a quotation.
Where relevant, we’ll consider the appropriate installer accreditations and certification requirements.
Make your roof work harder for your home.
Solar panels allow you to generate electricity from sunlight, potentially reducing the amount of electricity you need to buy from your energy supplier.
The suitability and potential benefits of a solar installation will depend on your roof, orientation, shading, electricity usage and other property-specific factors.
Whether you’re starting from scratch or considering solar as part of a wider home energy project, it’s important to understand the options available.

Tell us about your property and what you’re hoping to achieve. We’ll help identify suitable solar installers who can assess your home and provide a quotation.
Get more flexibility from your home energy.
Battery storage allows electricity to be stored for use at a later time, depending on the system configuration and how it’s operated.
For homeowners with solar panels, a battery may help them use more of the electricity they generate rather than exporting it to the grid.
Battery storage may also be considered as part of a wider home energy system, depending on your circumstances and the available tariffs.
How The Green CrossRoad can help
Whether you already have solar panels or are considering a combined installation, we’ll help identify suitable installers who can assess your requirements and discuss the available options.
Considering a combined system?
Solar panels and battery storage can work together as part of a wider home energy setup.
A suitable system will depend on your household electricity usage, roof suitability, battery requirements and the way you use energy throughout the day.
Rather than trying to piece together different options yourself, we can help you explore installers who can assess the overall project.
How The Green CrossRoad can help
We’ll discuss your priorities and help identify installers who can consider the combined requirements of your property.
Building or renovating? Plan your energy from the start.
If you’re planning a renovation, extension or self-build, it can be a good time to think about how your home will be heated and powered.
Considering renewable technologies early may make it easier to plan a suitable system alongside your wider project, rather than adding it later.
The most suitable option will depend on your plans, your property’s design and your project timescales.
How The Green CrossRoad can help
Tell us about your project and where you are in the process. We’ll help identify suitable installers who can review your plans and discuss the available options.
Comfortable all year round? Explore heating and cooling.
Some heat pump systems can be designed to provide cooling as well as heating, helping to keep your home comfortable throughout the year.
Whether a combined heating and cooling system is suitable will depend on your property, the type of system, how it’s designed and how you plan to use it.
An installer will need to assess your home and explain the options available.

HELP! I'm not sure what I need.
That’s absolutely fine. Let’s start with your goals.
You don’t have to know which technology is right for you before getting in touch.
Perhaps you have an old oil boiler and want to understand your alternatives. Maybe you’re unsure whether solar panels should come before a heat pump. Or perhaps you already have a heat pump and need to explore replacing it.
You might even be looking for ways to manage your energy costs and simply want to understand your options before committing to a larger project.
We’ll start by listening to what you’re trying to achieve and help you identify an appropriate next step.
Choose the option that best describes your situation:
- I'm considering replacing my oil boiler.
- I'm unsure whether a heat pump is suitable for my home.
- I'm considering solar panels but don't know where to start.
- I want to understand whether solar panels and battery storage would work together.
- I already have a heat pump and need to explore replacement options.
- I have an existing renewable energy system and want to understand my options.
- I'm mainly looking for ways to manage my energy costs.
- I'm not sure – I'd like to discuss my situation.
