As the renewable energy sector continues to evolve, maintaining the highest standards of quality, consumer protection, and technical excellence has never been more important. That's why we're pleased to announce that our renewable energy division, UK Green Energy Installations (UKGEI), is operating under the newly redeveloped MCS Installer Scheme through our parent company, LS Electrical Ltd, which holds the MCS certification.
The transition to the redeveloped scheme marks a significant step forward for the industry, creating a more robust framework focused on installation quality, customer confidence, and continuous improvement.
Understanding the Relationship Between UKGEI and LS Electrical
One question we are often asked is how UK Green Energy Installations relates to our certifications.
UK Green Energy Installations is the dedicated renewable energy brand of LS Electrical Ltd, specialising in solar PV, battery storage, EV charging and other low-carbon technologies. While customers know us as UKGEI, it is LS Electrical Ltd that holds the formal MCS certification and operates within the MCS framework.
This structure allows us to combine the expertise, compliance systems, and long-established reputation of LS Electrical with a specialist renewable energy brand focused on helping homeowners and businesses reduce energy costs and carbon emissions.
What Is the MCS Redeveloped Installer Scheme?
The Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS) has introduced its most significant update since its creation. The redeveloped scheme has been designed to simplify certification processes while placing greater emphasis on the quality of installations and consumer protection.
Key improvements include:
Greater focus on delivered installation quality rather than excessive administration.
Enhanced consumer protection measures.
Improved accountability and transparency throughout the installation process.
Clearer responsibilities for certified businesses and technical supervisors.
A framework designed to support continuous improvement across the renewable energy industry.
Why This Matters for Our Customers
For customers choosing UK Green Energy Installations, the transition provides additional reassurance that every renewable energy system we install is supported by rigorous quality standards.
Through LS Electrical's MCS certification, our customers benefit from:
