Glow installs solar panels, battery storage and EV chargers across Northern Ireland. Our background as NICEIC-approved electricians underpins the work, from design and installation to certification and aftercare. Matthew Lynes started in 2005 and built the trade over nearly two decades in London — commercial sites, domestic work, and every kind of installation in between.

Glow brought that experience home to Belfast, and is scaling it across Northern Ireland. We built the business on the unglamorous stuff done well: certificates, consumer units, fault-finding, tidy first-fix. But the most interesting work in the trade now is energy — panels on the roof, a battery in the garage, a charger on the wall, a house that mostly runs itself.

So that's where we've taken the company. Not by hiring a sales team — by putting our electricians through the renewables tickets and doing the same careful work on a different kind of job. The trade taught us respect for the rules.

The solar is where the rules meet the future. Plenty of solar firms are sales operations that subcontract the install. We're the opposite — NICEIC-approved electricians who design the system, put it on your roof, wire it, certify it and answer the phone afterwards.
