Solar PV
Solar panels are starting to become a must rather than a luxury
With the current shift towards electric vehicles and smart homes, solar panels are starting to become a must rather than a luxury for many homes.
How does a Solar PV panel work?
Solar photovoltaic (PV) cells use the sun’s energy to generate electricity directly. During the day-time, sunlight is absorbed into panel, creating an electric current for us to use in our day to day purposes. The more sunshine you have, the more electricity the panel can generate, and it even works on cloudy days too.
In the UK, most new built homes are already fitted with solar panels, for home owners to enjoy the benefits of reduced electricity bills, lowered carbon footprint and many more!
If you are interested in making a positive change for you home, our team of experts can help you make the most of this pioneering green technology.​
What are the benefits of Solar Energy?
Go Green: Solar PV generates renewable energy from the sun, helping to reduce your home's carbon footprint and contribute to a cleaner and green future! ​
Reduce The Bills: Solar PVs can help you save money on your electricity bills by: ​
- Using the electricity generated by your own panel, becoming self sufficient during certain parts of the day (especially when paired with a Battery).​ ​
- By applying for Feed-in-tariffs, where you will receive money in exchange for any electricity generated as a surplus! ​
Solar Panel Maintenance
Solar panels need minimal maintenance. The usual requirement is to keep them clean, and ensure that trees don’t overshadow them.
What to consider for installation:
Roof Spacing and Sunshine?
We recommend fitting your solar panels onto a southern facing roof, with little to no shading to maximise your panel's time in the sunshine.
Energy Storage for Night Time?
As power generation fluctuates over the day, we recommend pairing your solar PV with a battery pack, so you can save your energy for when it matters the most.
