Grants still available for PV Solar Installation
In Scotland, grants are still available of up to £4000 per property and up to £2500 in the rest of the UK. But, you need to hurry; these are due to end in March 2010, when the proposed Feed-in Tariff of 36.5p per unit of solar electricity generated comes into force. If you install PV Solar Panels before March you could benefit from both grant and the Feed-in Tariff, which makes solar panels a good investment choice.
Why not visit www.energysavingtrust.org.uk. The Energy Savings Trust provide independent advise or go to the Department of Energy and Climate Change’s website – www.lowcarbonbuilding.org.uk - and look at the Low Carbon Buildings Programme, which gives details of grants.
Then arrange for a site survey and quotation for a PV solar panel installation from an accredited installer, under the Microgeneration certification scheme. And before you know it, you’ll not only be making savings on your electricity bill, but receiving a tax-free income from any excess solar electricity you generate too.
As the Government’s white paper says: an average household, with well-sited PV panels, could receive over £800 income, plus bill savings of around £140, a year. There couldn’t be a better time, so why not telephone or e-mail for a quote TODAY!
