Solar photo voltaic systems (Solar PV) capture the sun’s energy converting sunlight into electricity to use in your home or business. PV cells do not require direct sunlight to work proving electricity even on cloudy days. However the stronger the sunshine the more electricity is produced.
Benefits of Solar Photo Voltaic Systems (PV)
Reduces energy bills Cost effective Reduces carbon footprint Minimal maintenance Reduces carbon footprint Grant available No noise or greenhouse gases produced Increase value of property Can work alongside a heat pump or solar hot water system (solar thermal) Can offset cost of tiles for new roof or roof replacement Can be installed on buildings or at ground level Does not require planning permission in most cases Proposed payment of up to 36.5p/kWh for all electricity produced for the Feed in tariff from April 2010
