Sidcup, Greater London — [20-07-2026] — SMD Energy, a heating and renewable energy company based in Sidcup, says it is seeing a steady rise in enquiries for air source heat pumps and solar panel installations, as households across London, Kent, and Essex look for ways to cut energy bills and reduce carbon emissions ahead of the UK's move away from gas boilers in new builds by 2035.

Founded in 2019, SMD Energy installs and services solar PV and solar thermal systems, air source heat pumps, and underfloor heating, in addition to its core boiler and central heating services. The company's engineers hold Gas Safe, F-Gas, and NAPIT accreditation, and SMD Energy is also approved by Which? Trusted Traders.

"A lot of customers come to us thinking about their boiler and leave with a much broader plan for their home's energy use," said Dave Benns, founder of SMD Energy. "Heat pumps and solar aren't just an environmental choice anymore, they're becoming a straightforward financial one too, especially with energy prices where they are."

SMD Energy provides a free consultation and site assessment for customers considering a renewable installation, followed by a customised system design intended to maximise efficiency and integrate cleanly with the property. The company also offers ongoing system activation, maintenance, and flexible finance plans to help spread the cost of a renewable energy upgrade.

The company's renewable energy services are available across its core operating area of Sidcup, Bexley, Bromley, Dartford, South East London, and Kent, alongside its established boiler and central heating work.
