What we fit on Bournemouth roofs, and why solar makes sense here
Panels, hybrid inverter and battery, sized around your usage and fitted honestly.
Why solar suits Bournemouth
Bournemouth's roofs range from Victorian and Edwardian terraces around Boscombe and Springbourne to 1930s semis further out towards Kinson and Moordown, plus seafront flats near the cliffs. The town sits on one of the sunnier stretches of the south coast, which helps generation, but the bigger factor for most Bournemouth homes is usage and roof orientation, not just how much sun falls on the postcode. Some streets near the cliffs, Dean Park and Talbot Village fall inside conservation areas, where we bring real experience keeping an install both compliant and unobtrusive.
Panels, hybrid inverter & battery
95% of homeowners take a battery alongside their panels, and the inverter is predominantly hybrid. See the full residential price guide and battery options.
All-black, standard or in-roof
All-black panels as standard, face no more than 15cm above the tiles, with in-roof or SolaSkirt options available.
Most roof types
Concrete tile, peg tile, slate, flat, trapezoidal and corrugated roofs, but not thatch. All kit is IP65/IP66 rated and never fitted in the loft.
Honest "sometimes no" advice
We won't recommend north-facing panels, and we're upfront when heavy shade makes a roof unsuitable.
Conservation areas & listed buildings
Experience getting planning granted next to Grade II listed buildings and in Article 4 conservation areas.

Adam Khodabaccus
We recently had solar panels and battery storage installed at our property in Poole by New Gen Renewables, and I couldn't be more impressed with the service we received. From the very start, the team were incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and professional. They took the time to explain everything clearly and made the whole process feel smooth and stress-free. We're already seeing the benefits of going solar.
Ben Harrison
Really good experience with New Gen Renewables from start to finish. Had solar panels fitted and the lads were spot on- turned up on time, worked hard, and got everything done to a high standard. Easy to deal with, no messing about, and explained everything properly without trying to oversell anything.
Neil Smith
Great service from New-Gen! Very personal and very reasonably priced. Had 24 panels installed with inverter and 2 batteries. All working perfectly.
Do you cover Boscombe, Southbourne, Westbourne and the rest of Bournemouth?
Yes, we install across the whole of Bournemouth, including Boscombe, Winton, Southbourne, Westbourne, Charminster, Springbourne, Kinson and Moordown, working out from our Broadstone base. Wherever your BH postcode falls in that reach, we cover it.
What does solar cost in Bournemouth, and does the sunnier coast actually help?
Our common 5kW, 10-panel system with a 10kWh battery starts from £8,825 including scaffold, with the average order around £10,000. Bournemouth does sit on a brighter stretch of coast than much of the country, which helps, but the honest answer is that your own roof orientation, shading and usage matter more to your final saving than the town's sunshine hours. We size every system around your actual annual usage and tariff rather than a generic postcode assumption.
My home is a Victorian terrace or in a conservation area near the cliffs, will that stop me having solar?
Not usually. We fit a lot of terraced and period housing stock across Bournemouth, and where a property is in a conservation area, such as around Dean Park, Talbot Village or the cliffs, we have real experience getting planning granted next to listed buildings and inside Article 4 areas. All-black panels sit flush and low on the roofline as standard, which helps on a period elevation.
Can I see recent solar work you have done in Bournemouth?
We are still building our photographed project gallery for Bournemouth specifically, so rather than pass off stock photography as local proof we would rather be upfront about that. We have completed over 700 domestic installs across Dorset and hold a genuine 5.0 star rating from real Google reviews, and we are happy to talk through recent local jobs when you call.
Why should I choose New Gen over the bigger Bournemouth installers?
A lot of the firms ranking for Bournemouth searches are running a large team on volume, which is not necessarily a bad thing, but it does mean less time spent on your own numbers. We treat every customer as if their money is our own, will tell you honestly if a battery or bigger system is not worth it for your usage, and offer a blind like-for-like quote against any other installer's spec so you can compare fairly rather than take our word for it.
