Services We Offer
Renegade Solar provides expert solar panel and battery installations throughout Bolton. As an MCS-certified installer based in North Manchester, we bring our expertise directly to Bolton homeowners and businesses looking to reduce energy bills and carbon footprints.
We've successfully installed solar systems on a wide variety of Bolton properties - from traditional terraced houses to larger detached homes and commercial buildings. Every installation is personally overseen by Ashley Merritt, a fully qualified electrician with over 15 years of experience who understands the unique characteristics of Bolton's diverse housing stock.
Solar Performance in Bolton
Many Bolton residents ask us if solar panels are effective in Greater Manchester's changeable weather. The answer is a resounding yes! Modern solar panels work efficiently even on cloudy days, generating at 80%+ of their capacity without direct sunlight.
Bolton's position well connected to the motorway network makes us ideally placed to serve the area efficiently, and we've completed numerous installations across the borough.
Property Types in Bolton
Bolton is the UK's largest town with around 280,000 residents, and its housing reflects its rich industrial heritage. Terraced and semi-detached properties make up 70% of Bolton's housing stock - a legacy of the town's mill worker cottages from when over 200 cotton mills operated here.
We frequently work with Bolton's characteristic terraced properties in areas like Farnworth (average property price £168k), Great Lever, and Deane, where careful system design maximises generation within available roof space. For larger homes in Bolton's premium postcodes like Belmont, Bromley Cross, and Egerton (average £282k), we can design more substantial systems.
Bolton's industrial heritage means the town has excellent commercial opportunities. With substantial warehouses and manufacturing facilities across the borough, plus a growing logistics sector, Bolton's business community can benefit enormously from commercial solar installations with their generous roof space and high daytime energy consumption.
For properties where conventional solar installation isn't suitable (due to shading, orientation, or planning restrictions), we offer battery-only solutions that work brilliantly with time-of-use tariffs like Octopus Energy's.
Local Knowledge & Personal Service
What sets us apart from national installers is our personal approach. Ashley personally oversees every aspect of your installation - from initial survey through design and installation to final commissioning. He's your direct point of contact throughout, not a salesperson or a call centre.
Our local knowledge means we understand Bolton's planning requirements and have experience with the specific property types across the borough. We can typically complete most installations within a week with minimal disruption.

Solar installation
We were looking for an off grid solar installation for our allotment. Renegade gave us a very good quote for the job and so we chose them. This turned out to be a great decision. Ashley did a site inspection and we tweaked the initial design to better suit our location. The installation went ahead on the planned date and the work was completed to a very high standard. We had some additional work carried out at the same time, some due to Ashleys recommendation (e.g. swapping our lighting for LED). I highly recommend Renegade as a trustworthy and competent company.
Renegade Electrical Ltd are brilliant!
Renegade Electrical Ltd have been great. They replaced my electric fuse box really quickly and for a really reasonable price too. Would highly recommend 👌
Renegade Electricals - Exceptional service!
In a word...outstanding! Renegade Electricals installed a 10 panel PV system with battery/inverter for us and we're extremely happy with it. Ashley was easy to deal with, reassuring and very professional providing full documentation and keeping us informed throughout the process. His customer service was exceptional and technical knowledge formidable. The panels, even in winter in the grim/grey north west, are producing impressive stats and its great entertainment watching the Alpha-ESS app showing the panels filling the battery up during the day, then discharging in the evening. RECOMMENDED!

Solar panel replacement
Ashley did an amazing job for us upgrading our solar panels after 3 had failed. Turned up on time and worked so hard putting right the botch job we had previously. Over the moon with the savings I have already made producing more power and reducing daily usage would highly recommend.
