Across Derbyshire, from bustling towns like Chesterfield to rural hamlets in the Peak District, homeowners are embracing solar panels and battery storage as energy costs climb. The county’s mix of stone cottages, modern builds, and expansive rooftops makes it ripe for solar adoption. At McConnells Green, we’re seeing more locals opt for batteries to store daytime solar power, using it during evenings or peak tariff times to maximize savings.
