Solar P.V. (Photo-Voltaic)
Of the renewable options open to homeowners, solar PV is arguably the most beneficial in most cases.
The introduction of the feed in tariff which is guaranteed for 25 years has meant that solar PV is now an investment with a real return for the home owner.
As well as the Feed in Tariff, you have the added benefit of being able to use the energy produced and sell the excess energy back to the electricity company.
Your Benefits of Solar PV:
1. Feed In Tariff (FIT):
Your electricity provider must buy every unit of electricity you produce at a fixed rate. This is regardless of whether you use the electricity generated. This rate is index linked so it rises year on year.
2. "Free Electricity":
All of the electricity generated is available for use in real time. This means that if you turn on appliances during the day, the power for the appliances is taken from the solar panels and topped up from the supplier if required.
3. Exporting electricity:
Any electricity generated by your PV system which is not used in your home is then "exported" back to the grid. You are then paid for each unit exported.

We do not employ sales staff and any site visit will be done by a Solar qualified engineer.
MCS:
If you have solar PV installed by a contractor who is not MCS registered you will not qualify for the Feed in Tariff. That is why you must choose an MCS accredited installer for your solar PV.
