About Us

History and Ethos

Solex Energy Ltd was first established in 2001 to provide competitive solar thermal roofing products for the UK.

Founder and director Peter Broatch had one goal in mind, to emphasise more sustainable living in addition to the reduction of fossil fuel usage.

Solex installed their first solar thermal roof in 2004 and has since had over 150 systems installed all over the UK, also featuring on Channel 4’s award-winning Grand Designs (see case studies for more details).

However, with the advent of the Smart Export Guarantee, Solex moved into the production of photovoltaic solar tiles. Currently our flagship product, enabling consumers to reduce their energy bills in addition to an intergrated building product.
