Testimonials

Our solar install is going to make a massive dent in our carbon footprint – that’s really significant. This is an absolute game changer – solar needs to be accelerated. This is going to be transformational for us.

David Mann

Utilita’s commitment to sustainability has been instrumental in making our solar install a reality. The installation of solar panels won’t just reduce our environmental footprint, it’ll allow us to lower our energy costs significantly.

Clare Martin

Reducing costs is important, especially with the cost-of-living crisis, so we wanted to get solar panels installed to reduce our bills. We’re always looking at how we can be greener. The communication from Utilita has been fantastic and they have been really helpful understanding the savings that can be made.
