Solar panel installation in Sussex.
Bright Spark Energy are MCS-certified solar panel installers based in Littlehampton, serving homeowners and businesses across Sussex and the wider South East. With over 14 years of experience and 450 completed installations, we design solar PV systems that are built to perform, built to last, and built around your energy needs.
Why Sussex homeowners choose solar.
Sussex enjoys some of the highest sunshine hours in the UK, making the region an ideal location for solar energy generation. A well-designed rooftop solar PV system can significantly reduce your reliance on grid electricity, lower your energy bills, and protect you from rising energy costs.
Whether you own a terraced home in Brighton, a detached property in Chichester, or a farmhouse in the Weald, Bright Spark will design a system that suits your roof, your lifestyle, and your budget. Our in-house engineers handle every stage of the process, from the initial roof survey and energy assessment right through to grid connection and ongoing aftercare.
What is included in a solar panel installation.
Every Bright Spark solar installation follows a proven process. We carry out a full roof and shading assessment, model your expected energy generation and savings, and recommend the right panel count and inverter technology for your property. We work with leading brands including SolarEdge and Enphase, and all our installations meet the highest industry standards.

Solar panels paired with battery storage.
For maximum savings, many Sussex homeowners choose to pair their solar panels with a home battery storage system. Rather than exporting surplus electricity at a low rate, a battery stores it for use in the evening or overnight.
Bright Spark is an approved Tesla Powerwall installer and also supplies systems from Sigenergy and other leading battery brands.
