Solar Panels
Solar energy is one of the best sources of renewable, eco-friendly energy available. Once installed, our solar PV technology can generate a substantial amount of a household's annual electricity needs - saving the average household money on their electricity bill.
Our systems convert the suns rays into electricity you can use in your home. Solar electricity generation is dependent on light intensity, not on heat or direct sunlight - so it works even on overcast days.
From April 1st 2010, the UK Feed-In Tariff comes into effect, making solar panel installation a very attractive investment indeed.
The FiT will apply across England, Scotland and Wales and is designed to incentivise solar panel installation, by offering what is referred to as "clean energy cashback". Put simply, it means that homes and businesses implementing small scale low carbon energy generation through solar PV panels (or other eligible means) will be paid for the energy they generate. This even applies if the households or businesses use all of the electricity they generate themselves! The rates have also been set so that those generating electricity through solar PV will be paid well above the rate at which utilities companies sell electricity, to account for the fact that solar generated power is more expensive to produce than fossil fuel generated power.
How much you get paid will depend largely upon the type and size of the solar PV technology you use in your home. The Government provide an overview of their Feed-in Tariffs, this can be found by clicking here.
These rates apply to systems installed between 1st April 2010 and 31st March 2012 and will be paid for a period of 20 years.
