Building Connections: ATMOCE and Solfit sign exclusive partnership for UK new-build housing

It's been in the news for years, the UK needs new housing and quickly. But new-builds also provide an invaluable opportunity to install renewable energy systems at scale. Luckily for new-build construction companies, ATMOCE and Solfit are signing an exclusive partnership which puts all steps and players in the installation process under one roof.

Until now there’s been a newbuild bottleneck due to high fragmentation in the renewable installation process. Developers are forced to coordinate separate contractors for roof integration, PV panels, microinverters, battery storage, and smart energy management. All this fragmentation leads to delays, errors, and inconsistent energy performance. Many new-builders have been ahead of the curve in installing renewable energy systems on their properties, however from the 24th March 2027 the Future Homes standards will come into force when all new dwellings will require onsite renewable energy.

Solfit and ATMOCE are signing an exclusive partnership to create a renewable energy framework designed specifically for UK new-build housing. Instead of treating roofing, electrical, storage, and software as isolated workstreams, they take a more joined-up approach. This means that housebuilders can easily design a solar system using products that are built to work together. The systematic framework also makes repeating the design process straightforward, which means that the energy output from the solar system is more consistent between developments. Certification alignment, technical support and handover support are also provided making the whole process smooth and simple.

ATMOCE provides the technological backbone of the partnership. They are supplying newbuild projects with their AC architecture, microinverter, battery storage and energy management technology. These microinverters convert electricity right on the roof, at each panel. This makes installation more flexible, microinverters can be installed in any configuration of panel directions (north, east, etc.). And you’re free to mix and match panels in any way, including by type, brand, and rating.

With ATMOCE’s technology and Solfit’s in-roof panels and delivery systems new builds are sure to be a more seamless process to deliver. Your future home could even be built thanks to this partnership. But if you’re an installer or a developer looking to do the building yourself, Midsummer has all the ATMOCE and Solfit products you need.
