As a new user I needed some advise as we had a problem adding a 2nd user to the app. Customer service was great, fast and efficient and problem easily sorted.
Outs standing service
As a solar PV and battery storage installer, I’ve worked with a wide range of manufacturers over the years. In my opinion, Alpha ESS stands out as the best system I’ve installed so far.
They’re not the cheapest on the market, but the build quality is second to none, and the products inspire confidence. What really sets Alpha ESS apart, though, is their app and technical support. When commissioning a system, it’s not unusual to need a firmware update or some technical assistance. With Alpha ESS, you can get straight through to their support team, and they deal with these issues quickly and efficiently.
I’m about to install my third Alpha ESS system this month, and based on my experience, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to both installers and customers.
Dean Electrical Wholesale x Alpha Ess
Dean Electrical Wholesale has recently become a distribution partner with Alpha Ess UK.
Since the start of our relationship Alpha have been nothing but brilliant, all you would want in a supplier.
Customer service and technical support is spot on, they'll also just pick up the phone and ring you rather than sending an email!
We recently hosted an installer training morning with Emma and Josh from Alpha Ess, where they dived into the technical ins and outs of their systems.
Emma and Josh are a real breathe of fresh air in this industry, genuine people with no BS! the fact they work for Alpha who happen to have a fantastic product is even better.

Jacek was a huge help explaining what was happening and trouble shooting a difficult install.
10/10 would recommend.
AlphaESS Distributor
We've worked with AlphaESS UK from a distribution perspective and have had a really positive experience all the way through.
The products have been really well received by our customers, but the biggest difference has been the level of support behind them. Lucy has been a huge help, always responsive, straightforward to deal with and genuinely committed to helping us and our customers.
It makes a real difference working with a supplier that is easy to communicate with and willing to support the relationship properly.
Would happily recommend AlphaESS UK.

Alpha have supported me multiple times from the point of sale through to their technical support on site.
Mark, Lucy & Andy represent the team with the highest of professionalism.
Great app, great customer service
I've had the system in for 9 months now, so plenty of time to find the good/bad sides.
The app is great, with lots very informative and complete control of the system.
Equally important, the customer support team have been really great when I've needed them (e.g. one occasion I messed up a setting and needed help to revert it, on another occasion the system got itself in a state and needed a reset). This is technology, and sometimes things will go wrong, so it's great to know with AlphaESS you can reach a human being that will help get it right again
Never able to force discharge
My battery has never allowed me to force discharge to the grid, having moved into a house that had already had them installed. I sent a ticket to Alpha, not expecting a reply, but within 24 hours I had received a reply saying that the issue is a settings problem, that they have hopefully resolved, but required further information. 24 hours later the issue is indeed resolved and I am now able to force export to the grid for the first time. Absolutely first rate service.
An overall great experience
I had an excellent experience with AlphaESS from start to finish. The equipment is high quality, reliable, and performs exactly as expected. The system has been efficient and easy to use, giving me confidence in its performance every day.
What really stood out for me was the customer support. Their professionalism and commitment to customer satisfaction made the entire experience smooth and stress-free.
I had an excellent experience with Andrew Bailey the head of Technical and Product from AlphaESS.
His expertise and commitment to providing outstanding customer service made what could have been a stressful situation straightforward and easy to resolve. Thank you, Andrew, for your exceptional support—AlphaESS is fortunate to have someone of your calibre on the team!
I would highly recommend AlphaESS to anyone looking for dependable energy.

We recently commissioned an Alpha ESS T20 system, and I can’t speak highly enough of Lewis throughout the entire process.
From the initial call right through to delivery and commissioning, Lewis maintained excellent communication and made sure everything progressed smoothly. His technical knowledge is exceptional, and when we needed support during commissioning, his patience and expertise were second to none. He took the time to work through everything with us, ensuring the system was set up correctly without ever making us feel rushed.
Nothing was too much trouble, and he consistently went above and beyond to provide a seamless experience. It’s refreshing to deal with someone who genuinely cares about customer service and takes pride in delivering the highest level of support.
A real credit to Alpha ESS. Thank you, Lewis – we look forward to working with you on many more installations.

Superior product quality and technical service support...
Thanks again for the great and very prompt service. I've just replaced my GivEnergy system with an Alpha ESS system, and there is a world of different between the two companies, the quality of products, and technical service support from Alpha ESS is far superior than the very poor product quality and technical service support I received from GivEnergy... from a very happy new customer!
