Since 2007 Ardenham Energy have carried out over 1,500 renewable energy system installations and much of our new business is gained from recommendations and referrals from previous customers.
Ardenham Energy provides a service offering far beyond just the installation itself; typically this might include assistance in applying for the Feed In Tariff through your energy supplier, advice on any available grants and application assistance, helping with planning consent , grid connection feasibility and connection applications, and structural advice and full structural surveys where applicable.
Referrals and recommendations are integral to our approach to business and we hope every new customer will be pleased to recommend us in the future.
Below are a few recent recommendations:-

It has been a delight working with Ardenham Energy. We greatly appreciate the total professionalism with which our 'problem roof' was dealt with on subsequent installation days & the care which was taken... Ardenham really is one of the nicest companies I've ever dealt with. Rosie Kefford, Frittenden, Kent. January 2012.

The team from Ardenham Energy were superb throughout the whole process of installing our PV system - from the initial survey, to putting the panels up and helping with the FITS registration process, everyone we dealt with was professional and courteous. I would happily recommend Ardenham Energy to anyone considering solar PV. Antony Gough, Cambridge. December 2011. |

Following the installation of my PV system, I wanted to thank you, as well as your colleagues, for the highly professional way in which it was all handled, in very difficult circumstances. I particularly appreciate your willingness to adapt the system specification on several occasions to cope with problems of component supply. Chris Elliott, Manor Park, London. December 2011 |

From beginning to end everything has gone like clockwork. Service and attention to detail has been superb. Gordon & Sylvia Gerry, Banbury. November 2011

I know these are difficult and testing times for your business brought about from some very bizarre decisions made by the Energy Minister. We have, at last, had your engineers on site to install our Solar Panels and wish to advise you that they were superb in not only their work ethic but also in their professional and friendly way in which they went about their business. Please pass on my thanks for the good work they all carried out during the install. I will certainly continue to recommend and promote Ardenham Energy to all my friends and professional contacts.

Thanks again for all your help during the process; you have provided excellent customer service and I'm more than happy to recommend Ardenham to others. |

My wife and I were extremely impressed with Ardenham Energy's professionalism, 1st class service and prices! The initial survey was arranged very quickly and the surveyor very knowledgable in the area and confidently addressed all my questions. Our report was sent in just a few days and the quote extremely competitive. Over £1,000 cheaper than another installer for the same system. The installation team were equally impressive! 5 turned up in force and had the job done in 4 hours!! Their attention to detail was first class... they even replaced a faulty roof tile which had a hole in! They left the house spotless and the 3.42kwp system was generating electricity the same day! Amazing. We are extremely pleased with our system and it's performing really well especially for winter! I would have no hesitation in recommending Ardenham Energy. Stuart Blofeld, Leighton Buzzard. November 2011. |

| Many thanks to all the team on our recent solar installation. Everyone was thoroughly professional from quotation, fitting (which only took less than a day!) and aftercare. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Ardenham and it's even better being able to support a local company employing local people. Well done everyone.
Mark Bowman, Aylesbury. November 2011. |

The economic downturn meant savings generated almost zero return; solar power looked a much better bet so I decided to have PV panels installed and contacted various companies to get information and quotations.Ardenham were very quick to respond and seemed interested in having another customer. Many of the others didn't bother to reply and some replied saying they were too busy. After a visit from Ardenham I decided to that they felt right, talked as if they knew what they were doing and had well proven experience. Rod Burns, Tring, Hertfordshire. |

Ardenham Energy customer John Harrison has published details of the performance of his 3.3kWp system over its first year on his website. There are some fascinating graphs showing weekly and cumulative generation, daily power variance throughout the year and an analysis of how much electricity he imported and how much he exported compared to generation. Overall his system has performed 10% better than he was expecting which is great news! Check out the site for yourself by clicking here. |

“The five men who carried out the installation were courteous and turned up when they said they would which is always appreciated. With a predicted eight year payback with the Feed-in tariff rate as it is, the proposition was just too good an opportunity to miss.” Bob Owen, Mortimer West End. October 2011 |
||
|
"Why Ardenham Energy? With estimates from four other solar companies, Ardenham was undoubtedly the one we felt were hugely professional and applied no pressure whatso ever to us. They were incredibly well informed and told us the science behind the solar too and this is what really impressed us. As well as being friendly, they were on time, very efficient and competive on price too." Malcolm Gough, Codicote. October 2011 |
||
|
“I used Ardenham Energy on strong recommendations by family and friends and thought they were efficient and did what they said they were going to do and hopefully with having the panels on the roof I can influence others around me to do the same." Tim Alberry, Leighton Buzzard. October 2011 |
||
|
"Just a short note to thank everybody involved with the installation of our solar panels etc. for their valuable contribution. All were very professional, pleasant and considerate in every way and have done a great job. We would certainly recommend Ardenham to any friends thinking of a similar project." Chris & Jennie Sugg, Aylesbury. October 2011 |
||
|
"I would like to congratulate the Ardenham Energy team on a job well done. The way that we have been treated, from enquiry to installation has been very professional and friendly. Your entire installation team; including scaffolders, electricians and installers all behaved in a professional and friendly manner and the system looks good and is already producing energy. (If you could arrange for some more sunshine, then this would be greatly appreciated !)" Malcolm Kirby, Leighton Buzzard. October 2011

"The sheer professionalism of Ardenham Energy together with the most competitive price made the decision to go with them very easy. We received three quotes where the top one was almost twice the price of Ardenham.Investment wise with a 12% return and a payback of approximately eight years, this is a hard act to follow at the moment compared with what the banks can offer, but it does pay to shop around first to make sure the initial price makes sense." Tom Freeman, Radcot. September 2011

"Putting up solar panels offers a better investment opportunity than anything else out there on offer at the moment. Being pensioners we are already careful with our energy use and are mindful of our bills but the Feed-in tariff means we really are quids in, especially with the energy rises that are taking place. We are delighted to have them up and totally impressed with Ardenham Energy." |
||
| "The Feed- in tariff has certainly made installing solar panels economically worthwhile. We have a wood burning stove and I've taken to my push bike as much as I can. Although the Feed-tariff was the main driver in installing the panels it has helped to realise my efforts to reduce my own environmental impact. Ardenham Energy made it a no fuss operation and were highly professional in their approach." Patrick McLoughlin, Tring. September 2011 |

|

| "The system is brilliant and I'm counting the pennies daily. The installation was carried out really professionally by an excellent team of four young men that worked almost non stop until it was commissioned. Attached is a recent photograph that shows how good it looks. "
Mr B Collins, High Wycombe. September 2011 |

I have had two installs now by Ardenham and the projects were completed on time and efficiently.They have been really good helping with feed in tariff paperwork/licences and always contactable, positive etc. I am not the easiest person to please ! But have no hesitation in saying you will be ok with Ardenham. I have just ordered another 4 kw array from them as well.

“The whole experience with Ardenham Energy right from the start was excellent and we consider the whole operation as highly professional. I am very impressed with it all and will recommend them to everyone." Brian Furner, High Wycombe. June 2011 |
||
|
"From the visit of an experienced electrical engineer on their sales and estimation team, to quotation (15.3.11), acceptance (against 5 other quotes) and installation (4.4.11) in one day, the company cannot be faulted. I have rarely been so impressed by the competence and efficiency of a company providing customer support in such a competetive market. (I could have paid mor than half as much again with a lead-in time of more than six weeks)" |

As I always complain if things are rubbish I feel committed to also comment when things are good!

“I chose Ardenham Energy because they gave me the best solution for my roof space but also they were competitively priced and they were based locally which was an important factor for me. The installation was a little more complex as it was on two roofs, but it only took one day to install the system and it was generating electricity that very evening. I have to say, the team at Ardenham Energy has been very easy to deal with and have been very responsive whenever I contacted them.” Ian Foll, Clifton Reynes. Summer 2010 |

"I am expecting an initial yield of about 14.6%. When you then take account of the income being index-linked and tax free, I felt it was very compelling indeed.If anyone knows of a better investment I would be pleased to hear from them!” Charles Haselwood, Towcester , Spring 2011

"Many thanks for a quick, efficient and thoroughly professional PV panel installation from beginning to end.

"We would like to put on record our satisfaction with your hard working team who have just completed installing our PV panels. Everything was explained clearly and they left the house and garden immaculate. Many thanks to all.” Dr & Mrs Tanner, Padworth Common, Reading |
||
|
“To me, putting solar panels up on our house is a complete win- win situation. My electricity bills will start falling from now on, I will get an income from all the energy I generate and I will receive more for any surplus which is then fed back into the grid, plus the value of my house will have improved.” Mr. Pipe, Blewbury |
||
|
"What I love is that my meter which used to flash red now flashes green and stops. The meter actually stops which is when the output of the solar panels matches or exceeds the usage. It’s a great feeling,” Chris Bryant, Leighton Buzzard |
||

I would recommend Ardenham Energy, they got all the work done in one day. They had a lot of work to do but it was carried out neat & tidy with as little mess as possible. The system works well and we have saved a lot on our electric bills.I also had a lot of help from your office staff I spoke to. I am pleased I had it done, I only wish I had it years ago as I may not last to see it pay for it's self, but I will try to. William [Bill] Edwards, Aylesbury |

"We are very happy with the installation. We love the board and arrangement you prepared for the 2 inverters, Sunwatch transmitter and isolators - please tell your team it will be appreciated every time we see it. That as well as the solar panels all look like works of art - Thank you for sending a great team" Cindy Bell, Somerset
