Renewable Energy Solutions for New Builds
First fix plumbing for new buildsAt The Fuel Effect, we provide renewable energy solutions for new builds, self-build homes and property developments throughout Kent, West Sussex, East Sussex, Surrey and London.
Working with homeowners, developers, architects and contractors, we design and install renewable heating systems that improve energy efficiency, reduce running costs and help new homes meet modern building standards.
Our services include air source heat pump installation, ground source heat pump installation, underfloor heating installation, Solar PV installation and battery storage solutions. We provide complete renewable energy system design, planning and delivery from start to finish.
Renewable Energy for New Builds
Designing renewable technology into a new build from the outset allows every system to work together efficiently. We help clients create integrated heating and energy solutions that provide comfort, lower carbon emissions and long-term value.
Our renewable energy services include:
- Air source heat pump installation
- Ground source heat pump installation
- Underfloor heating installation
- Solar PV installation
- Battery storage solutions
- Renewable energy system design
- MVHR installation
- Smart heating controls
Every system is designed around the property’s heating requirements, insulation levels and expected energy usage.

Heat Pump Installer for New Build Homes
As an experienced heat pump installer, we install air source and ground source heat pumps for residential and commercial developments.
Before installing a heat pump, we carry out detailed heat loss calculations to ensure the system is correctly sized. This allows the heat pump to heat your home efficiently, provide reliable hot water and integrate seamlessly with modern central heating systems.
Whether you require an air source heat pump or a ground source heat pump, we carefully design every installation to maximise efficiency and deliver long-term performance.
Although the upfront cost of a heat pump can be higher than that of a traditional gas boiler, lower running costs and improved efficiency can make it a highly cost-effective solution over the long term.
For many new build properties, permitted development rights allow the installation of an air source heat pump. However, some projects may still require planning permission depending on the property’s location and type.

Underfloor Heating Installation
Our underfloor heating installation service is designed to complement renewable heating systems, particularly heat pumps.
Because underfloor heating operates at lower water temperatures than traditional radiators, it works exceptionally well with both air source and ground source heat pumps.
Benefits include:
- Even heat distribution
- Improved comfort
- Greater energy efficiency
- Flexible room-by-room control
- Lower operating temperatures
- Compatibility with renewable technologies
We design and install underfloor heating systems for self-build homes, residential developments and commercial projects.

Solar PV Installation & Battery Storage Solutions
Our Solar PV installation service allows new homes to generate renewable electricity while reducing reliance on the grid.
A professionally designed Solar PV system can help power your home, support your heating system and reduce overall energy consumption. We also install Solar PV systems with battery storage, allowing you to store excess electricity for use later.
Benefits include:
- Lower electricity bills
- Reduced running costs
- Greater energy independence
- Increased use of renewable electricity
- Long-term energy savings
All solar panels installed are carefully selected to suit the property’s energy requirements and future demand.
Renewable Energy System Design
Every property is different, which is why professional renewable energy system design is essential.
Our design process considers:
- Heat losses
- Building layout
- Insulation levels
- Heating demand
- Hot water usage
- Future energy requirements
By designing every system before installation begins, we ensure each renewable technology works efficiently as part of one integrated solution.
Working With Developers, Architects & Self-Build Customers
We work closely with property developers, architects, self-build customers and contractors throughout every stage of a project.
From the initial consultation through to installation and commissioning, our team helps integrate renewable technologies into the build while keeping the project aligned with the wider construction programme.
Industry Standards & Guidance
Where applicable, renewable installations can be completed in accordance with the Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS). We also encourage customers to review independent guidance from the Energy Saving Trust when researching renewable heating technologies and energy-efficient homes.
