Encom Energy, solar and battery installations in Northern Ireland

Encom Energy is a company based on Heron Road, Belfast, dedicated to the design, supply and installation of solar photovoltaic and battery storage systems. It presents itself as a specialist in systems of all sizes and for all sectors, with bespoke design and professional installation of grid-connected systems. The company operates in the UK renewables sector and serves both private homes and commercial buildings, with coverage throughout Northern Ireland and beyond.

The company began trading in early 2021, driven by growing demand for renewable energy systems, according to its own presentation. Among its founders is Don Patterson, with previous experience in the healthcare, property and construction sectors, who remains on the board after stepping back from daily operations. The management team is completed by Lewis Clarke as CEO, Anna Patterson as Chief Operating Officer and Graeme Steele as Chief Financial Officer.

Residential solutions

In the residential sector, Encom Energy offers solar panels, battery storage systems, electric vehicle chargers and an energy management system (EMS). The company highlights that high-performance panels are designed to harness natural light, while batteries allow excess energy to be stored and supply maintained during peak consumption times. The residential catalogue also includes the integration of home devices and electric vehicles for control and scheduling from an app.

The company also markets an integrated solar roof solution developed together with manufacturer Roofit.Solar, which combines photovoltaic technology with a Nordic-style metal roof. Encom Energy notes that it has been working with developers for some time on the installation of in-roof and standard solar modules, and that it recognises the appeal of renewable energy with improved aesthetics.

Services for businesses and large installations

For the commercial segment, the offering covers photovoltaic installations, battery storage, electric vehicle charging, power purchase agreements (PPAs), private wire networks, expansions and upgrades of existing systems, as well as maintenance services. The company has completed large-scale projects, such as a 151 kW commercial solar PV installation for Hannon Transport in Lusk, as reported in its news section.

Control, financing and service guarantees

The company provides customers with an app that allows them to view and control energy sources and home devices, optimise the performance and lifespan of panels and batteries, and check consumption data. Encom Energy also offers financing options to spread the cost of installation into monthly payments. The company emphasises that its experience and knowledge underpin a professional and safe installation, and that it has fully qualified staff. Anna Patterson oversees compliance with MCS and ISO certifications.

Team and recent activity

The management team combines management, technology, finance and construction backgrounds. Lewis Clarke brings experience in energy electrification and in the integration between data networks and energy networks. Graeme Steele, an economics graduate from the University of Ulster, has sixteen years in the financial sector.
