  • Emma, East Sussex

    Darragh and Leigh have been helpful and friendly for the whole process, from design, DNO applications, to install. The install was completed to a high level of workmanship, and the support continues with performance and IT questions responded to promptly. We have not hesitated to recommend FRIX Energy to family and friends.

  • John - East Sussex

    Frix Energy were brilliant from start to finish. They installed a large 88-panel system for us with batteries, inverters and an EV charger – and honestly, we couldn’t be happier.

    Darragh and Leigh were knowledgeable, professional, and easy to work with. They took the time to understand our needs, explained everything clearly and designed a future-proof system.

    The workmanship is top-notch, the system is performing brilliantly, and everything was completed to a very high standard.

    It’s clear they care about what they do and take real pride in their work. We would recommend FRIX to anyone thinking about going solar!

    Leigh & Darragh are awesome. Had solar panels and battery fitted in 2023. The analysis before was very thorough and the service and check-ins post install are really appreciated. Would highly recommend
