Energy & Efficiency Review
A joined-up review of how a home or business premises uses energy — including solar, battery storage, tariff behaviour, EV charging and, where relevant, heating-system calculations and setup.
Core launch service Smart energy, explained properly
Understand your energy. Make it work harder.
Plain-English help for homes and businesses using solar, battery storage, EV charging, smart tariffs and modern heating systems. We help you understand what your property is doing, check the numbers, spot wasted opportunities and make the different systems work together.

What we do now
Less guessing. More control.
Homes and commercial premises can now have solar, battery storage, EV charging, smart tariffs, heat pumps and other energy systems all interacting. That is especially true in new-builds, where owners are often handed complex systems with very little explanation. We help you understand the numbers and settings, identify what is not working efficiently and give you practical next steps — whether the equipment is already installed or you are still deciding what to buy.
New Build Energy Setup & Handover
Moved into a new-build and been left with solar, a battery, heat pump, EV charger or smart controls you barely understand? We help you identify what has been installed, explain how it should work together and show you the key settings, schedules and apps you actually need to know.
New-build supportSolar & Battery Pre‑Purchase Consultation
Thinking about solar or battery storage but not sure what you actually need? Before you request or accept installer quotes, we can help you understand sensible system sizes, battery capacity, inverter choices, tariffs, export options and the questions worth asking — so you can compare proposals from an informed position.
Independent pre‑purchase adviceBattery & Solar Optimisation
Charging windows, reserve levels, self-consumption, export behaviour and seasonal settings — with the aim of making your existing system work more intelligently around your tariff and household.
Launch serviceEV Charging Setup Support
Struggling to get the vehicle, charger, manufacturer app or smart tariff behaving properly? We help work through the setup, schedules and common conflicts — including domestic and workplace charging setups with battery storage.

For suitable setups, we can help plan dashboards, alerts and automations that make complex energy systems easier to understand and manage across homes and small commercial premises.
Advanced advisoryWhy F&R?
Your equipment might be smart. Your setup might not be.
Most equipment is configured to be safe and broadly sensible out of the box — not necessarily optimised for your tariff, generation, vehicles, operating hours or the way your property is actually used.
01
Battery charging at the wrong timeCheap energy windows and solar forecasts can be used far more intelligently.02
Solar being wasted or exported cheaplySometimes the best move is to use, store or export — but the answer changes through the day.03
EV charging fighting the battery systemPoorly coordinated systems can waste cheap-rate energy or simply move energy from one battery into another.04
Too many apps, no clear pictureWe help turn the data into decisions instead of another screen full of graphs.How it works
We learn the site before changing the plan.
No generic “set everything to eco” nonsense. We start with the property, equipment, tariff, operating pattern and priorities.

Improve over time
As F&R develops, qualified electrical, fire-system and air-conditioning services can sit alongside the energy side under one roof.
Built together from day one
Meet F&R.
F&R is being built by Jack and Harry around one simple idea: make modern energy and electrical technology easier to understand, easier to control and, as the business grows, easier to install properly across both domestic and commercial properties.
Founded by Jack and Harry. F&R Electrics & Energy is being built around a shared vision for smarter, more efficient homes and businesses.
J
Jack — Co-founder
Building F&R from the smart-energy and home-efficiency side while undertaking formal electrical training. Focus areas include batteries, solar, EV charging, tariffs, property energy behaviour and practical system optimisation.
H
Harry — Co-founder
Building F&R alongside Jack as an equal partner, with the same long-term goal of developing the business from energy and efficiency support into a wider qualified electrical, fire, cooling and property-technology service, with smart commercial buildings as the final stage of the plan.
🛡️
Clear about what F&R offers today — and what comes later.
F&R currently focuses on advisory, setup-support and home-energy optimisation services. Electrical installation, fire-system installation and air-conditioning installation are future services and will only be offered when the relevant training, qualifications, certification, insurance and competence requirements are in place.
The next stage of F&R
One business for energy, electrical and property technology.
The long-term plan is bigger than advice. As Jack and Harry complete the relevant training and qualifications, F&R will expand into hands-on installation services for domestic and commercial customers while keeping the same joined-up approach. The final stage is to take that experience into smarter commercial buildings and business automation.
Domestic & Commercial. F&R is being developed to serve homeowners, landlords, small businesses,
offices, workshops and other commercial premises — not just residential customers.
Electrical Work
Planned domestic and commercial electrical installation, upgrades, testing and energy-related electrical work once the appropriate qualifications, registrations, insurance and competence are in place.
Future qualified serviceFire System Installation
A planned future service covering suitable domestic and commercial fire detection and alarm system installation once the relevant course work, competence and certification requirements have been completed.
Future qualified serviceAir Conditioning
Planned domestic and commercial air-conditioning installation and associated services after the relevant training and certification have been completed.
Future qualified serviceSmart Business & Building Automation
The final stage of the F&R plan: helping commercial customers make buildings and workplaces smarter through joined-up energy monitoring, automated controls, intelligent scheduling, dashboards and alerts.
Final-stage ventureThe F&R plan
Build it in stages. Keep every stage useful.

FAQ
Questions worth asking.
What is included in the £50 EV charging setup support?
A remote support session focused on getting your EV, charger app and smart-tariff setup behaving sensibly. We can work through schedules, smart-charge settings and common conflicts with home batteries. It does not include on-site electrical fault-finding, repair or installation work.
Can you advise me before I get solar or battery quotes?
Yes. The pre-purchase consultation is designed to help you understand what may suit your property before an installer starts selling you a package. We can look at your usage, objectives, tariff, likely solar generation, battery requirements and the features worth comparing, then give you a clearer list of questions to take into installer quotations. It is independent advisory support rather than an installation design, structural survey or regulated electrical specification.
Can you help me understand the energy systems in my new-build?
Yes. A new-build handover review can help you identify the equipment installed, understand the solar, battery, heat pump, EV charger and controls, and learn how the different systems should work together. It is designed to fill the gap between “here are your manuals” and actually knowing how to run the house properly.
What do you check with wet underfloor heating?
Where the information is available, the Home Energy & Efficiency Check can review the basic design logic and calculations behind a wet UFH setup — such as room demand, heated floor area, loop coverage, flow-temperature assumptions and whether the numbers appear sensible as part of the wider home-efficiency picture.
Do you only work with domestic customers?
No. The business is being built for both domestic and commercial customers. Some launch advisory services will suit homes best, while others — such as EV charging, energy optimisation and future electrical, fire and air-conditioning work — can apply equally to commercial premises.
Can you guarantee a certain saving?
No. Savings depend on usage, tariff, equipment, weather, export rates and household behaviour, so we would rather show you the logic than make up a magic percentage.
Are you currently offering electrical, fire-system or air-conditioning installation?
Not yet. Those are planned future F&R services linked to Jack and Harry's training pathway. They will only be offered once the relevant qualifications, certification, insurance and competence requirements are in place.
What do you mean by making businesses smarter?
This is a later-stage commercial service, not the initial launch offer. The idea is to combine F&R's experience in energy, electrical systems and building services with automation — for example monitoring, dashboards, alerts, intelligent schedules and joined-up controls that make commercial premises easier and more efficient to operate.
