Find out more about The Energy Conservation Group by going to our site. We install excellent quality solar PV systems and are passionate about making sure our customer benefit massively when using and installing green energy systems with us.
Video Transcription:
Of all the microgeneration technologies available in the UK, solar PV is proving to be the most popular and fastest growing. There are many myths surrounding solar photovoltaic systems, so lets explore some frequently expressed concerns.
Solar PV panels do not require direct sunlight to work, they will still generate electricity on a cloudy day, so come rain or shine, your system will generate clean, green energy.
Solar PV is supported by the government’s feed in tariff, which obliges energy companies to make guaranteed, tax free, index linked payments to homeowners for generating electricity from renewable systems. Homeowners are paid for every unit of electricity they generate irrespective of whether the homeowner uses the electricity or feeds it back to the grid.
The feed in tariff is designed to pay the owner of a property fitted with an MCS accreditted PV system a guaranteed index linked income for25 years. If the property is sold for any reason, the new owner acquires the system, effectively converting the remaining income back into a lump sum for you or your estate.
So no value is lost if you move home.
Solar PV fuctions best on roofs that are facing south, south east or south west.
But as they can generate energy even on cloudy days, most properties are suitable unless your home is overshadowed by large trees or buildings. Most roofs are strong enough to accommodate a solar PV system, and our technical surveyor will check this for you.
Solar PV has been granted permitted development status which means that planning permission is not normally required, however if you live in an area of outstanding natural beauty, a conservation area or in a listed building, you may need permission.
The Energy Conservation Group has an in house planning department which will handle this process on your behalf.
Solar PV delivers impressive reliablility and longevity. For example, BP, the oil company who are actively developing renewable energy sources, recently found a failure rate of 0.13% in over 2 million panels in a variety of locations over an eight year period.
PV panels are also very low maintenance, with no moving parts and are essentially self cleaning, the first silicon based systems were installed in the 1960’s and some of these are still in place and generating energy today.
Most satelites are also powered by solar PV, by using high quality panels and components, our systems are designed to last approximately 30 years with a market leading 12 year guarantee.
Not all solar PV panels are ideally suited to the cloudy weather we enjoy in the UK, unlike some other major installers, we only use PV panels made in Europe for European weather. We use panels designed to maximise the solar energy available in typical british weather conditions, to get the best from your PV system, try reducing the amount of electricity you use by being more energy efficient, use a smart meter or electrical monitor to help.
Try to use appliances like washing machines during daylight hours so they will use electricity when your system is generating and will always run off that free electricity first.

A short film to show the simple process of equipping a domestic roof with free solar panels. All you need is 24 square meters of south facing roof space to qualify for saving up to 50% on you electricity bills.
Solvis Energy Solutions has now received funding to install free solar panels on houses in the North West of England! These free solar panel installations are great for homeowners who don’t wish to pay the up front cost of solar pv installation. The homeowners benefit from reduced electricity bills, while the investors benefit from the feed in tariff.
Good for your electricity bills and great for the environment.

If you want to run your house on solar or wind power you have to start with getting your home as energy efficient as possible. I am running a hybrid system that incorperates solar,wind and a grid interactive battery backup system. The diesel generator ties it all together in the event of a long term power outage.
