Good work from everyone at Mole Energy

We recently had our 5.8kwp solar edge system with 10kw battery installed. Everything was held up due to finding a bat whilst we re-roofed the property prior to the solar install - the people at Mole were always patient and charged us the original amount despite us causing them a 3 month delay which was beyond our control.
A speedy and very tidy installation was done when they said they would do it and we are extremely happy with the outcome. I’m loving the app that shows what’s going on with the system. Well done guys!

Tesla Powerwall install

The waiting list was long, but we finally had our Tesla Powerwall 2 installed today. Matt and Adrian were fantastic: knowledgeable, friendly, able to answer all our questions, and set the system up exactly as we wanted. Couldn't have been better!

Solar panels and battery well worth the cost

We had our solar system installed in March this year and would advise anyone thinking of getting them now to invest in a battery as well. We have a solar edge battery as the wait for the Tesla’s one was too long for us to contemplate. Although an added expense we are reaping the benefit of having stored electricity available to use overnight. We have hardly used energy from the grid since installation and so the outlay has been well worth it. We have the inverter and battery located in our garage and the installers from Mole energy did a very neat job with minimal disruption to us. We had to wait quite a while for the installation date as they were very busy. We would highly recommended this company.

Superb engineer Matt

Superb engineer Matt - thank you.
Came today and fixed long term problem that was really tricky. Didn’t give up even though it proved very complex. That tenacity was much appreciated- thank you.

Broken promises

I have now been waiting some months for a tesla battery to be installed. I have been chasing up each time it's near to possible installation which is annoying as nothing comes from mole.
Ive been told it will be installed June, July, August and now October.
I was told that as soon as I paid the huge 50% deposit I would get a date but this clearly is not what's happening.
I'm wondering who is getting the work done? Those with larger orders?
Although staff are plesant on the phone there has been no formal explanation given and I'm apparently not allowed to speak directly to the operations team so any thing I do get is third hand.
I'm annoyed I paid my 50% deposit in good faith in early May and still have no guarantee the will even be done, and no formal explanation or apology.

Dear Sarah,

Thank you for your feedback which we take very seriously. We are sorry and completely understand why you are annoyed.

Please be assured that we honour all deposits paid. Your deposit has secured your Tesla Battery - and at the initial price quoted. This means you will not be affected by the significant price increase (nearly £2,000) for the Tesla Battery that has occurred since your order was placed.

Your deposit has also secured your place in the queue for delivery of your Tesla - and a provisional installation date too. No-one has been placed above you in this queue. We now have a delivery date promised by Tesla and an anticipated installation date scheduled (both of these dates have now been communicated to you personally).

We sincerely apologise for the delays. Global supply chain issues (beyond our control) meant that Tesla have not been able to meet their original delivery dates. In addition, we have been overwhelmed by demand and as result, our communication with you has fallen short.

Our Managing Director has contacted you personally to explain and apologise. We are working hard to put new systems in place, to help improve our communications and ultimately our customers’ experience. We want you to be happy - not only with your Tesla but with your experience with us too.

If you require any further assistance, please let us know, and in the meantime, we look forward to confirming your installation date once we have received your battery from Tesla.

Best wishes from all the team at Mole Energy

I can't recommend them enough

Very happy with my recent install. Everyone I've had contact with at Mole have been friendly and helpful, happy to explain things, and sort out issues.
The guys that came to do the work did a great job, each part of the installation looks to have been completed well. It was nice chatting to them about the different aspects of what they were doing.
I can't recommend them enough.

First class company with first class service.

First class company with first class service. We bought a house from the 1870s and I wanted to introduce new technology from the 2020s especially in this era of higher utility bills. Mole Energy helped us all throughout this process and the team have been brilliant - service, liaison, arranging installation dates and sorting out all of the scaffolding. I do and will continue to recommend their services to anyone.

Brilliant Service all round highly recommended

I investigated Solar with battery backup for many months and on speaking to Mole Energy it was clear they were ahead of the game and knew everything that was required to know and more than many others I spoke to. They were informative and extremely helpful with no pushy sales team or talk, just factual and to the point. The quote was very competitive and in fact they went above and beyond all the rest with their initial assessment, visit and subsequent installation which took a day as they had always said. they left us as they found us, in fact cleaner. Their aftercare was also above and beyond that which I expected and, has been so since. I would never recommend anyone else from now on having had Mole Energy install at my home and other Companies install at my work place, no comparison, Mole Energy all the time, well done.

A poor Partnership that puts customers last

Mole Energy went into Partnership with Bionic as a broker for electric. The whole process of changing over electricity provider with multiple meters and asking Mole Energy and Bionic to source contracts was a disaster. Late changes, out of contract pricing and poor communication when it came to sorting everything out. This is not what we had experienced previously and we are still awaiting a resolution from both Mole Energy and Bionic, nearly 6 months down the line! We spent more time on the phone being "the middle man" than we would have done if we had sorted the electric contracts ourselves. This cost us days (not hours) out of running our business.
I would like to point out that I am normally very supportive of businesses in my reviews, as per my previous experiences with Mole Energy, but this last experience has been appauling.

Thank you, Elizabeth, for your review and we appreciate the time you have taken to write this. All reviews are important to us and especially those that let us know when we have fallen short of your expectations, and ours too.

The energy switching service was put in place to help our business customers simplify the often stressful and longwinded process of switching energy contracts and you have experienced the opposite. We are very sorry and would like to resolve this. We are currently looking into this and will contact you personally. Roscoe Howard - Energy Contracts Manager

Solar Panels at The Poltimore Inn, North Molton

We found that working with Mole Energy was very professional and my view was that Mole Energy would exist for the long term whereas other sustainable companies have fallen by the wayside. I am looking forward to working with the company again to enhance future projects with sustainability ie. more solar panels and air source heating

Solar instillation

I had been looking into getting Solar panels for quite sometime. I had contacted a couple of companies local to me but did not proceed as there seemed a lack of commitment from those companies. I saw an advert for Mole energy and thought I would give them a try. From the first phone call I made it was clear that this was a company I wanted to deal with. The communication throughout has been spot on, schedules adhered to and plenty of guidance when required. My instillation was brought forward and conducted very professionally. The team that came to my house were respectful, engaging and tidy. Apart from the solar equipment you would not have known that a team of 5 had been working at my property. I would highly recommend Mole energy to anyone thinking of installing renewable energy.

Excellent Service. I found Mole Energy extremely helpful

I found Mole Energy extremely helpful, respectful, and efficient. The communication face-to-face, online and by phone was always clear and they always responded quickly. The engineers were excellent, friendly, informative and efficient and I am very pleased with the solar energy system they have installed.

Mole Energy 10 out of Ten and have…

Have used Mole Energy twice and have found the company efficient and transparent. The beginning of the sales process, was dealt with by Richard Whistance who was a delight to deal with, so much so that we now look on him as a friend. Georgia Binmore was our contact during the process and she was very amenable and efficient. Emails were responded to swiftly and nothing was too much trouble. The scaffolding company and the solar fitters were also a pleasure to deal with. We have recommended Mole Energy to friends and wouldn't hesitate to do so again. Overall a smooth and pleasurable experience.

Tesla Powerall installation - A+

Extremely professional. Helped with entire application process through final installation of Tesla Powerwall connected to my existing PV system. Georgia was extremely helpful in terms of all the paperwork and application process. Adrian and Matt did an amazingly neat job on the installation on what was a tricky install,. They really went above and beyond. Thanks!

Very satisfied with service and installation

Recently had installed a 4.76 KW solar system with Tesla Powerwall. From 1st phone call asking for advice and a quote, a spot on service. Quote within days subject to survey. Slightly more expensive than another quote, but using better quality German designed panels. Luke surveyed and explained everything. Installation team then took over and Georgia kept us fully informed. Good Scaffolding Sub contractors had scaffolding up 2 days before installation. A team of 3 worked non stop on the roof all day in horrendous weather without complaint and 2 electricians in the house. Complicated system needed to allow for further growth if it proves as efficient as we hope. Wiring completed a couple of days later by excellent expert electrian Shane and system commissioned. Wiring all very tidy and help setting up the apps with Tesla and Solar Edge.

Advice to any customer going for the Octopus Tesla Tariff. Start the switch to Octopus as soon as you order, get the smart meter installed on a temp tariff as it will speed up getting moved across to the Tesla tariff. Octopus need and can only get a MPAN from the Distribution Network Operator once you are a customer of theirs. It takes even longer if not already with Octopus who will put you on the 11p import rate Energy tariff until the DNO grants the Mpan to them. The latter stage takes at least 2 weeks with Western Power so allow around a month to be on the full 11p Import and 11p Export tariff after installation. It's much longer if you don't get the switch to Octopus before installation.

Thoroughly recommend Mole Energy and the whole team. Thanks to all.

First Class

Professional from start to finish. Completed in under 4 hours. Polite and respectful Team. The solar panels look amazing and are pleasing to the eye. We felt we wanted a company backed by a household name, we felt confident and reassured by all involved and are so pleased we took the plunge. Even in these darkest of days, the solar panels are generating power. Would thoroughly recommend Mole Energy without hesitation.

5 Star Service

I had a 4 KWh PV installation with a Tesla Powerwall at my property in November 2020. I found Mole Energy to be very knowledgeable with regard to the products that would be best for my installation, able to communicate in plain English and very efficient throughout. They kept in touch at every step of the process and rose to the challenges posed by our dormer windows. They handed over the system with very clear instructions. I would have no hesitation in recommending Mole Energy to others.
