Solar Heating Systems
Is My Home Suitable for a solar pv system?
The majority of homes in the UK are suitable for solar panels.
The three key points to consider are:
Which way does your roof face?
The direction that your house faces will affect the amount of sunlight your roof sees. The panels should be installed on a south facing direction to receive the most sunlight, however they are still very efficient when facing east and west.
What is the angle of your roof?
The angle or pitch of your roof can make a difference to the amount of sunlight a solar PV system will receive throughout the day and therefore affect the amount of energy it can generate. The angle will be checked by our experienced staff at your free survey.
How Shaded is your roof?
Any shading from trees, surrounding buildings or chimneys will have a negative impact on the energy produced by the panels. Our team will plan the installation to avoid shading where possible.

The Feed-In-Tariff
How does it work?
The generation Tariff
Your energy supplier will pay a set rate for every unit of electricity (or kWh) generated by your solar system, whether you use it in your home or not.
The Export Tariff
As you won’t be able to use all the energy produced by your solar system the export tariff has been set up so your energy supplier will pay you for the unused units of electric you export back into the National Grid.
Reducing your energy bills
The average home will use around 50% of the energy produced by a solar PV system. The more you can use your free electricity the greater the savings on your electricity bills.
The Feed-in-Tariff payment amounts:
Size of PV System Feed-In-Tarrif (p/kWh)
| >4kWp (new build) |
37.8 |
| <4kWp (retrofit) |
43.3 |
| 4 – 10kWp |
37.8 |
(can the above figures go in a box or something to stand out, they will also change each year)
