Meet Earnz, Our Local Partner for OVO Solar and Heating North West

We chose Earnz for the North West because of how they talk about the job. Tackling fuel poverty is the reason Managing Director, Danielle Garland, has said she got into the industry in the first place.

Earnz, was founded in 2019 and is led by Danielle. The team works with local housing associations to tackle fuel poverty, commits to annual food bank donations, and gives staff volunteering days including community energy advice sessions.

Our chosen local partner: Earnz is our local partner for the North West.

Local knowledge

The North West has a mix of Victorian terraces and newer-build semis, which need different approaches to insulation and heat loss when fitting solar or a heat pump.

What Earnz offers

The team has fitted solar PV on everything from straightforward semis to more complex roof layouts, with every system designed around your household’s actual energy use rather than a one-size-fits-all package. Battery storage lets you store the power you generate during the day and use it in the evening, when your household needs it most.

Heat pump installation is a growing part of the business, with every system designed around your home’s heat loss profile first. As UK summers get warmer, more North West households are also asking about air conditioning alongside their solar and heat pump systems, worth raising with the team if that’s something you’re considering.

Frequently asked questions about solar and heat pumps in the North West

What will an installation cost me, and how quickly can it happen?

Costs depend on your property, system size and current setup, so the team gives every customer a fixed quote after a free survey rather than a standard price list. Typical solar installations take one to two days on site, while heat pump installations vary depending on whether pipework or electrical upgrades are needed. You’ll get a timeline specific to your job once the team has assessed your property.

I’m worried about rising energy bills, can you help with that specifically?

Tackling fuel poverty is part of why Earnz exists, and the team works directly with local housing associations on exactly this issue. They also offer community energy advice sessions, so even if a full installation isn’t right for you yet, it’s worth asking about ways to bring costs down in the meantime.

Are there any grants available?

Homeowners in England may be able to access the government’s Boiler Upgrade Scheme towards the cost of an air source or ground source heat pump, which can bring down the upfront cost considerably. Eligibility and the current grant amount can change, so the team will confirm what applies to your situation, and it’s worth checking the latest details on GOV.UK too.
