What is Switch Together Suffolk?

Switch Together Suffolk is a council‑supported scheme designed to make installing solar panels simpler, more transparent, and better value for Suffolk residents. It works by bringing households together in a group‑buying model, where vetted installers compete to offer a strong, fair deal.

Since launching in 2018, the scheme has already helped more than 3,000 homes across the county install solar panels, supporting residents to generate their own clean electricity.

Why are so many people signing up?

From what we’re hearing across Suffolk, two things matter most to homeowners:

1. Saving money on electricity bills

Generating your own electricity means relying less on the grid – and that can make a real difference to your monthly costs.

Many households are already seeing savings of hundreds of pounds each year, while enjoying more predictable energy bills.

2. Making homes more sustainable

Solar energy is clean and renewable – helping you shrink your household’s carbon footprint while contributing to Suffolk’s wider climate goals.

Put simply: it’s a practical way to make your home part of the solution.
