We cover Newmarket in our service area and we're located in Dry Drayton, just a short 25-30 minute drive away.

This means we can be with you in the blink of an eye for quick surveys, expert support, installations and ongoing maintenance.
No matter if you have a residential property on Exning Road or large commercial premises on Fordham Road, you can get some fantastic benefits from investing in solar energy.
Solar panels installed on your Newmarket home or business rooftop capture sunlight and convert it directly into usable electricity. Photovoltaic (PV) cells within each panel generate direct current (DC), which is then transformed into alternating current (AC) by an inverter, which is ready to power your appliances, lighting, and equipment.
Any excess electricity produced during the day can either be fed back into the grid to earn you income through the Smart Export Guarantee or stored in battery systems for later use.
Newmarket is a great location for solar due to its long stretches of flat land and ample daylight hours. Solar systems provide efficient, reliable, and sustainable energy solutions tailored to your unique needs.
Newmarket benefits from around 1,400 hours of sunlight per year, making it an excellent location for solar energy production in Suffolk. For residential properties, a standard 4 kW solar panel system in Newmarket typically generates between 3,500 and 4,000 kWh per year.
This energy production level is sufficient to meet most or all of an average household’s electricity consumption, especially when paired with battery storage.
Commercial and utility-scale solar developments are also thriving around Newmarket. Projects such as the Fordham Road Solar Farm, with its 5 MW capacity spread across 25 acres, show the region's strong solar potential.
To receive a tailored estimate for your property’s solar potential, we provide a free consultation, accounting for factors like roof orientation, panel efficiency, and your household’s energy usage.

Antonio understood exactly what was needed and quickly issued a competitive quote covering the options.
Every stage of the project was handled efficiently and professionally. The installation team were polite, friendly, and hard working and Zak ensured that we were informed and consulted when necessary. I recommend without reservation.
The whole team at RDS were excellent before, during and after our solar installation. They were very professional throughout and great at talking through options.
The actual installation was quick and seemless, plus they were great at clearing up afterwards. Highly recommended!
