Solar Panels

Solar photovoltaic technology in simple terms collects the sun’s free energy and transforms it into electricity that can be used in the home and diverted back into the national grid. The benefits are compelling – substantially lower electricity bills in light of spiralling energy costs plus guaranteed earnings from the companies through the Government’s Feed in Tariff. What’s more it’s a great way of reducing your carbon footprint.

How It Works?

Solar PV is all about daylight, not heat. In fact if the panels get too hot they will actually lose efficiency so in effect the UK has the perfect climate for solar as we rarely get too hot. Daylight causes the silicon in the panels to react which in turn produces electricity.
