Web Design for Solar and Energy Companies

Solar websites, that generate leads.

We've launched the websites for nine solar and energy technology companies. At ES Electric Solutions, they used to receive at most two inquiries per month through their website; now they get ten qualified inquiries.

  • Integrated solar planner or configurator
  • Separate Services for Residential and Business Customers
  • Fixed price and delivery date included in the quote
What's Usually the Problem with Solar Websites

Three common challenges that cost solar companies business. And how we solve them.

We've built nine websites for solar and energy technology companies. The same three causes came up in almost every initial consultation. Select an item on the left, and you'll see the problem and solution displayed on the right.

What You'll Get

It's up to you in the end.

Not adjectives, but a website that answers your prospective customers' questions before they call.

Solar Planner or Configurator

Prospective customers can estimate their potential savings right on the website, including a breakdown of costs. At Floth and Pahl, this is how most inquiries are generated.

Reference Projects with Statistics

System size, location, savings. One sentence describing the situation, one sentence describing the solution. That’s the proof a business customer needs and a residential customer believes.

Funding and Technology Explained in Simple Terms

FAQs on BAFA, KfW, storage, payback, and the process—explained in plain language. It addresses the questions that usually come up at the start of every initial consultation.

Local Visibility

Optimize your business category, Google Business Profile, and structured data so that you appear in search results for “photovoltaics” plus a location and in AI-generated answers.

Real Faces Instead of Stock Photos

Who comes in for a consultation? Who answers the phone? When you’re making a five-figure investment, you want to know these things. At ES Electric Solutions, Dennis and Joshua are the faces of the company—not some anonymous corporate statement.

Complete Transfer

The code, design files, access credentials, and documentation belong to you. You are responsible for maintaining the text and references yourselves; training is included.

That's how it works. It's the same for every project.

The Beginning

Initial Consultation and Concept

We understand your business and determine what you really need. This leads to a plan and a proposal with a fixed price and delivery date.

You can see everything

Design

The designs are developed based on the concept. You provide feedback before anything is finalized. We can justify every decision.

No Black Box

Development

Development is proceeding in clear phases, which you can check in on at any time. No surprises on launch day.

From here on out, she's yours

Go-Live and Handover

We go live and hand everything over: code, design files, login credentials, and documentation. After that, we can handle hosting and maintenance upon request.

Case Studies

Two solar power plants, to be exact.

No empty promises. These are the inquiries that come in through the website, as tallied by the companies themselves. In the solar market, every single one of them is hard-earned.

Dennis and Joshua founded ElectricSolutions in 2022, but their 25 years of experience weren’t apparent online. The new website puts them front and center, provides an instant quote for a system, and features real customer testimonials from the region.

What we've written about solar websites.

Three articles that address the most common questions asked during an initial consultation with solar companies.

Recommended tools: Speed Check · SEO Check · Design Check · Accessibility Check · Website for €999

What solar companies ask us first.

Questions from initial consultations with solar and energy technology companies. Here are the answers.

How much does a website for a solar energy company cost?

Experience has shown that a website with a clear structure, genuine testimonials, integration with Solarplaner, and clean technology typically costs in the mid- to high four-digit range. Following the initial consultation, we’ll provide a quote with a fixed price and a delivery date. For those who want to start small, we offer a website package for 999 euros.

Are you building the solar configurator yourselves?

Depending on the need. At Pahl, we built our own solar configurator with a cost overview; at Floth, a solar planner; and at ES Electric Solutions, we integrated with Cloover for calculations and financing. The key is that the calculator leads to a request, not just a number.

We serve both residential and commercial customers. Do we need two websites?

No, but there are two entry points. Homeowners and buyers search differently, read differently, and need different documentation. Both are guided through the process with relevant information and their own inquiry form on the same website.

How can we make progress with "photovoltaics" in our town?

For location-based searches, a Google Business Profile is often more important than a website. We align the category, services, and service area on the profile with those on your website and add structured data so that AI search systems can also recognize you as a local provider.

How do we explain production and storage without boring people?

With an FAQ written in plain language instead of technical jargon: BAFA, KfW, payback period, when a storage system is beneficial and when it isn’t. At S&P Freie Solarmakler, a glossary explains the technical terms. This anticipates the questions that would otherwise take up the beginning of every consultation.

We already have a website. Would a redesign be enough?

Sometimes, yes. If the structure and technology are sound, we’ll fix the homepage, the testimonials, and the contact form. If the site is a off-the-shelf theme with images that barely load—as was the case with IB Energiesysteme before—it’s worth building a new one from scratch. We’ll tell you that honestly right after our first look.

Do you also work outside of Cologne?

Yes. Our solar energy customers are located in Alzey, Würzburg, Karlsruhe, the Rhine-Main region, and Switzerland. The process is the same everywhere; appointments are held via video conference.

Can you also run ads for us?

Yes, Meta Ads and Google Ads are part of ad management. For solar companies, this only works if the ad, landing page, and feedback on qualified leads all align. You can find out more about how this works in the article on Meta Ads for solar installers.

Should we take a look at your solar website?

Send us the link. We'll see if a potential client can figure out in twenty seconds what you do, for whom, and where, and we'll give you our honest opinion on whether a new building is worth it or if you can get by with a smaller space in three locations.
