Your questions answered
Today’s technology is cost-effective, simple to install and helps both planet and pocket.
Helping the planet:
Over 25 years the average home solar system offsets the same amount of CO2 as recycling 16 tonnes of domestic waste or driving a family car for 112,745 miles. That’s the same as driving around the Earth 4.5 times
Helping your pocket:
An average 4kWp home solar array, generating 4,000 kWh per year, could result in annual savings of between £500 and £1,000 per annum.
For example, if your 4kWp solar array generated 4,000 kWh per year and you were able to consume 2,000 units (50%), then the saving against a rate of 26p would result in an annual saving of £520.
This is dependent on how much solar energy you use of course, and your own personal needs and requirements.
Some of our business customers have saved between £8,000 and £40,000 per annum.
Solar PV is designed to fit onto most roof coverings including; slate, tile, fibre-cement, tin, corrugated, standing seam and box profile.
We can also install integrated roof systems too.
Our consultants can advise further.
Yes, we can install solar panels on outbuildings including barns, sheds, and garages. We can also install ground-mounted systems.
Roof-mounted, home solar panel installations are seen as ‘permitted developments’, so the majority of customers will not need to apply for planning permission; unless your home is listed, or you wish to have a ground mount.
Planning consent might still be required in a conservation area so it is advisable to check with your local planning authority/portal.
Most home installations take a day (or two) at the most. Our consultants will be able to provide a more accurate estimate once they’ve carried out your initial survey.
