GRID CONNECTED SOLAR PV
Solar panel electricity systems, also known as solar photovoltaics (PV), capture the sun’s energy using photovoltaic cells. These cells don’t need direct sunlight to work – they can still generate some electricity on a cloudy day. The cells convert the sunlight into electricity, which can be used to run household appliances and lighting.
Why go solar?
Cut your carbon footprint
A typical home solar PV system could save over a tonne and a half of carbon dioxide per year – that’s more than 30 tonnes over its lifetime.
Your path off grid
Power your home with the solar energy and store excess in a battery storage solution to reduce your reliance on the grid and lower your electricity bill.
Sell electricity back to the grid
If your system is producing more electricity than you need, you can sell the surplus back to the grid through the Export Tariff.
Installation and optional extras
Our solar packages include installation on tile or shed roof, but we can install onto a Slate roof or Ground mount. Slate roof install costs £250 + VAT extra. Ground mount install costs £500 + VAT extra.
The most popular upgrade to any solar panel system is an immersion heater controller by Myenergi for £299 + VAT, closely followed by monitoring systems to keep an eye on the performance of your solar panel system remotely and quickly identify any faults.
Get paid to export excess power
Excess power generated by your solar panels is automatically exported to the grid you can get paid for this excess power. You can optionally avail of an export payment of up to £80 per year. We handle MCS registration, insurance*, and export registration for you for a one off admin fee of £200.
