Solar-Powered Air Conditioning
Lower Bills For Year Round Comfort
As energy prices continue to rise and the UK experiences warmer summers, more homeowners and businesses are looking for sustainable ways to stay cool, without facing higher energy bills.
At Viable Power, we make that possible with solar-powered air conditioning. By combining our expertise in solar panel installation with the advanced, energy-efficient air conditioning systems developed by our partners at Cold Control, we deliver reliable, year-round comfort powered by clean, renewable energy.
Together, we’re helping homes and businesses across Surrey, Hampshire, and the South East create smarter, greener energy solutions that make both financial and environmental sense.
Why Choose Solar-Powered Air Conditioning?
Air conditioning has become essential for modern comfort, but it can also be one of the biggest contributors to household and business energy use. Solar power transforms that balance.
With a solar panel installation in Surrey or Hampshire, you can generate free, renewable electricity to run your cooling system directly from the sun. It’s a perfect partnership: when the temperature rises, your solar panels produce more energy, right when you need it most.
Switching to solar-powered air conditioning means you’ll enjoy more than just comfort, you’ll gain real, lasting benefits:
- Lower energy bills – Generate your own electricity and reduce your reliance on expensive grid power.
- Sustainable comfort – Keep your space cool using clean, renewable energy with zero direct emissions.
- Energy independence – Take control of your power generation and protect yourself from rising energy costs.
- Long-term reliability – Solar panels typically last over 25 years and require minimal maintenance, making them a smart, long-term investment.
- Smarter energy use – Add a solar energy storage battery to store excess power during the day, keeping your system running efficiently even after sunset.
By combining advanced air conditioning technology with renewable solar energy, you’ll stay comfortable all year round while cutting costs and reducing your environmental footprint.

Solar-Powered Air Conditioning FAQs
How does solar-powered air conditioning work?
Solar panels installed by Viable Power capture sunlight and convert it into electricity. This renewable energy powers your air conditioning system directly or offsets the power you’d normally use from the grid — reducing costs and emissions.
What happens at night or on cloudy days?
Your system continues to work as normal. When solar production is lower, your property draws power from the grid. By adding a solar energy storage battery, you can store excess daytime energy and use it whenever you need — even after dark.
Is solar-powered air conditioning expensive to install?
There’s an upfront cost, but solar energy systems are designed to pay for themselves over time through energy savings. According to the Energy Saving Trust, typical households can save hundreds of pounds per year on electricity. Pairing solar with efficient air conditioning makes the return on investment even stronger.
Will solar panels increase my property value?
Yes. Homes with solar systems are more desirable and often sell faster. Buyers are drawn to properties with renewable technology that lowers bills and improves energy performance.
Can solar power help with heating as well as cooling?
Absolutely. Solar electricity can power both cooling and heating systems, including modern heat pumps — providing comfortable temperatures year-round while keeping your energy use sustainable.
How much maintenance do solar panels need?
Very little. Solar panels are designed for minimal upkeep — a quick clean once or twice a year and occasional checks to ensure optimal performance. Viable Power can include maintenance in your installation package for total peace of mind.
