Independent home energy advice. No hard sell.
HomeEnergyHQ exists because UK homeowners deserve a straight answer when they ask "is solar worth it on my house?" or "should I get a heat pump?" — without being routed to whoever pays the highest commission.
What we do
We publish plain-spoken guides on home energy upgrades — starting with solar PV and air-source heat pumps. The guides are written for the houses you actually live in: brick terraces, 1930s semis, 1960s bungalows. Not California new-builds.
When you're ready, we'll connect you to vetted local installers. Until then, we'd rather you read first and ask questions.
How we make money
Two ways:
- Pay-per-lead from vetted installers. When you fill in one of our quote forms, we pass your details to up to three MCS-certified installers who match your postcode and project. They pay us a small fee for that introduction. You pay nothing.
- Affiliate links. Some of our guides link to relevant products or energy suppliers. If you click and buy, we may receive a commission — at no cost to you. See our affiliate disclosure for the full picture.
We don't take payment to promote a specific installer or product over a better one. If you ever feel we have, please tell us — that's the kind of feedback that keeps us honest.
What independence means here
HomeEnergyHQ is not owned by an installer, manufacturer, or energy supplier. We're not part of a comparison portal owned by a holding company that also owns installers. There is no boardroom incentive to push a particular brand.
What we will do: recommend that you check three quotes, look up MCS certificates, ask uncomfortable questions about payback assumptions, and walk away from any installer pressuring you to sign today.
Our editorial standards
Every guide goes through fact-checking before publication. Numbers are sourced from named bodies — MCS, BEIS/DESNZ, Ofgem, the Energy Saving Trust — and dated so you can see when we last reviewed them. When something changes (a grant amount, a VAT rule, a tariff), we update the page and note the date.
