Solar generation / battery / control
TURN SUNLIGHT
INTO LEVERAGE.
A solar system should do more than sit on the roof. It should be designed around how the building actually uses energy, how much independence you want and what comes next.
One system
Generate. Store. Control.
No generic package
Roof, load profile, battery strategy and monitoring are designed together.

MONITORING
Start with the building
Stop buying panels. Start designing an energy system.
Panel count is only one decision. Orientation, daytime demand, battery capacity, future EV charging and monitoring all change what a smart system looks like.
01
Map the load before the hardware.
02
Design generation and storage together.
03
Keep performance visible after installation.
Three ways in
Pick the problem. We design the system.
01 / Home
Residential solar
Roof-first design for households that want lower grid dependence without turning the house into an engineering project.
02 / Business
Commercial solar
Systems shaped around working hours, roof area, operational load and future electrification.
03 / Storage
Battery storage
Capture more of what the roof generates and decide when your stored energy should work for you.
From roof to dashboard
Four moves. No mystery box.
01
Read the building
Roof, orientation, shading, meter data and future plans go into the brief.
02
Design the system
Generation, inverter, storage and monitoring are sized as one system.
03
Install cleanly
The installation plan covers access, cable routes, equipment location and handover.
04
Keep it visible
Monitoring turns the finished system into something you can actually understand and manage.
Selected system types
Different roofs. Different logic.

Open-site generation
One connected system
Power should move where it is useful.
The design decides what happens first: use solar directly, charge storage, support the building later or interact with the grid according to the installed configuration.

Before you buy
Questions worth asking before anyone drills the roof.
How do you decide how many panels I need?
Start with consumption, usable roof area, orientation, shading and how the building is used during the day. A useful design is not simply the maximum number of panels that fit.
Do I need a battery?
Not automatically. Storage makes sense when the load profile, backup goals or energy strategy justify it. The battery should be sized with the generation profile, not sold as a separate gadget.
Can the system be prepared for an EV or heat pump later?
That future demand belongs in the design brief. Cable routes, inverter choice, available roof capacity and storage strategy can all be considered before installation.
What should a quote actually show?
At minimum, the proposed system components, assumptions, installation scope, monitoring approach and any project-specific warranty or performance terms that have been verified.
Your roof is already there
Now make it earn its place.

Frequently asked
Before you commit to anything
Answers to common questions. If yours is not here, get in touch and we will help.
What sort of projects do you take?
We support teams and organisations with strategy, planning, delivery, and ongoing improvement.
Will this become a formal project?
Most projects benefit from clear thinking before they grow. We help turn uncertainty into a practical plan, with the people who know the work involved throughout.
What does a first conversation cost?
An introductory conversation helps clarify whether we are the right fit and what a useful next step could be.
What does an ongoing support plan cover?
Ongoing support keeps plans, priorities, and questions moving between larger pieces of work.
Still have questions?
Call us and ask. We would rather explain it once than have you guess.

Executive Website System
More than a WordPress theme.
This website is built on a custom Executive design system for professional website projects. It combines a dedicated visual direction, reusable page architecture and native Gutenberg editing without relying on an off-the-shelf marketplace theme.
A stronger starting point
Custom where it matters. Systemised where it helps.
A professional website does not need to start from a blank screen, but it should not be trapped inside a generic purchased demo either. Executive provides a controlled technical and visual foundation with reusable Gutenberg patterns, templates, responsive components and fixed design rules.
Branding, content, photography, services, navigation and page composition are still specific to the individual website. The reusable architecture removes unnecessary technical reinvention without turning every project into the same site.
Not an off-the-shelf theme
A controlled Executive architecture, built on native WordPress.
The design system, pattern library, page architecture and styling are developed inside the Executive theme architecture. WordPress, Gutenberg and Twenty Twenty-Five provide the open-source technical foundation. The value added here is the Executive design direction, compositions, styling, reusable functional library and controlled implementation.
Built for consistency and control
One system, without visual lock-in.
Consistent
Typography, spacing, surfaces, buttons and layout widths are governed by one design system.
Flexible
Pages can use different native patterns and compositions without abandoning the design direction.
Scalable
New services, projects, articles and pages can be added within the same architecture.
Editable
Content remains manageable with native WordPress and Gutenberg blocks.
Responsive
The supplied patterns and templates are designed for desktop, tablet and mobile layouts.
Distinctive
Executive Brutal is a controlled design direction, not an off-the-shelf marketplace theme.
What is actually included
The figures come from the current theme.
These counts are read from the installed child theme and theme.json instead of being maintained as marketing numbers.
193
Patterns
Reusable native Gutenberg sections included in this design direction.
28
Templates
Site layouts for pages, publishing, search, projects and commerce.
6
Template parts
Shared structural parts controlled from the Site Editor.
17
Semantic colours
A controlled palette rather than arbitrary one-off colour values.
Global Styles currently exposes 3 font families, 7 font sizes, 7 spacing presets, 4 radius presets and 4 shadow presets.
Reusable pattern library
Open every pattern category as a visual reference page.
The Pattern Library pages show the registered Executive patterns themselves. This makes it possible to review the full design system by function instead of searching through one long editor list.
5 patterns

Native WordPress and Gutenberg
Edit the website with the platform it is built on.
The standard Executive architecture uses native WordPress, Gutenberg, Full Site Editing, theme.json, patterns, templates, template parts, Query Loop, Global Styles and core blocks. No external pagebuilder is required as the structural basis.
What can be changed
- Content, headings, images, video, links and calls to action
- Navigation, page order, sections and selected pattern combinations
- Available brand colours, typography, spacing, width and alignment controls
- Forms, services, people, projects, articles, products, pricing and testimonials
Theme versus website
The foundation is developed. The website is specifically composed.
The Executive theme provides
- Design direction and design system
- Typography, spacing, surfaces and button system
- Responsive patterns, templates and template parts
- Block styling, editor styling and layout architecture
The individual website provides
- Logo, branding, business identity and content
- Services, products, projects, people and articles
- Photography, navigation and contact information
- The selected page compositions for that project
The demo is an example, not the template
Different websites can use the same design direction without becoming copies.
Layouts can be selected differently, sections can be reordered, photography and content change, navigation changes and the available brand system can be applied to the individual project while the Brutal design identity remains coherent.
Built as a maintainable system
One child theme for the design direction.
Generic improvements are developed centrally. Customer content remains separate from the central theme code, and functional additions can be shared without creating a new branch-specific theme fork for every website.
Updates are developed with backwards compatibility and preservation of existing design contracts as the operating principle.
A proven foundation. Built around your business.
Use the design direction as the visual and technical base, then build the website around the actual business.
The result is not a fixed demo with new text. It is a specific website assembled within a controlled and maintainable Executive system.
