Sustainability Initiative of the Year
B&Q roof-mounted solar panels in partnership with Egg
Clean energy solutions provider Egg is teaming up with B&Q, the UK’s leading home improvement retailer, to help more customers install solar panels and power their homes more sustainably. This is the first time B&Q (
www.diy.com) is offering roof-mounted solar panels; and it has selected Egg (
www.crackingenergy.com) as its official solar partner to design and install systems tailored to the needs of individual homeowners. B&Q will assess the suitability of customer homes for solar panels as
part of its new Energy Saving Service, which advises customers on how they can improve energy efficiency. Customers book an appointment with a B&Q advisor to go through a range of available data from their property, including its age, construction, EPC rating and current energy usage. B&Q will then present a personalised action plan on ways and products to potentially reduce energy usage. Customers keen to pursue solar panel installation will be referred across to Egg to design, deliver and install a bespoke solar solution. Egg’s solar experts look at
many aspects of a property to design a solution that will deliver an impactful
proportion of the household’s energy needs. Factors c ons id er ed include

Egg manages the full process, from consultation and design, through planning, to installation. The judges said: “A very strategic partnership that adds weight to the overall B&Q home improvement proposition, whilst also adding value to consumer priorities - by removing and demystifying key complexities.”
