SRS Insurance – Specialist Renewable Installer Insurance

The renewable energy sector is expanding rapidly, and with it comes increased operational, technical and compliance risk. Whether you install solar panels, battery storage, EV systems or heat pumps, you need insurance designed specifically for high-tech, regulated installation work.

SRS Insurance provides tailored protection for renewable contractors working under MCS, TrustMark, PAS 2030/2035, ECO4, GBIS and other green-funding frameworks.

Why Renewable Energy Installers Choose SRS Insurance

The renewable sector is complex — accreditation, DNO notifications, retrofit roles, performance obligations and design responsibilities mean standard tradesman insurance is not enough.

With SRS Insurance you get:

  • Cover aligned with MCS & PAS requirements
  • Protection that accounts for retrofit responsibilities
  • Options for small teams, national installers & subcontractor models
  • Guidance from advisors who understand technical compliance
  • Specialist PI for design, specification & commissioning work

We insure renewables every day — not as a bolt-on, but as a core sector.

Insurance Aligned With MCS, TrustMark & PAS 2030/2035

MCS Installer Cover

We understand the certification requirements around:

  • Workmanship and performance
  • Handover packs & commissioning
  • Evidence documentation
  • Consumer protection obligations

Our cover supports your accreditation, not just your tools.

PAS 2030 / PAS 2035 Installer, Designer & Coordinator Cover

PAS roles carry additional liabilities, including:

  • Design & specification

Our Professional Indemnity and liability packages cater for all PAS roles.

DNO & Grid Connection Risks

We can include cover for losses arising from:

This is a growing area of risk for both domestic and commercial renewable installs.
