How it works
The Go Renewable process is simple and can be completed at your own pace.
-
1
Tell us about your home
Answer some questions about your home with our free online assessment. This will take you no longer than 10 minutes to complete. We'll assess your home and show you the renewable technologies we think your home will be suitable for.
-
2
Review your options
Once you've told us about your home, we’ll use this information to recommend your renewable energy options, along with estimated installation costs and potential savings. Decide if you want to progress or save your results to come back to later.
-
3
Sign up to Go Renewable
Whether you're ready to take the next step or are just looking at your options, sign up to create your Go Renewable hub. You'll need to do this to start the process or to save your home's renewable energy options to come back to at any time.

Book your home surveys
When you’re ready, arrange for one of our experts to carry out a professional survey of your home for a one-off fee starting from £300 (inc. VAT). The results are yours to keep and you’ll also get an updated energy performance certificate (EPC).
Usually, you’d need to get multiple surveys from different installers to quote for the work. This survey is comprehensive and can be used for all your quotes – saving you time and money.

Receive and compare quotes
Get quotes from MCS certified installers in your area directly through Go Renewable. All quotes are free and there’s no obligation to accept. We recommend you receive at least three quotes for your chosen technology.

Book your home installation
Once you’ve chosen a quote, speak to your installer directly within Go Renewable to agree the cost of the work and install your technology.
