Don't just take our word for it...
“I want to see more homes, communities and businesses generating their own energy. We can literally bring power back to the people. Microgeneration is a key part of this vision. By becoming more self sufficient we can create sustainable local energy economies. People and communities can save money on their fuel bills at the same time as generating an income and cutting carbon”. Greg Barker, Minister of State, Department of Energy and Climate Change, July 12 2010 A return of 9% (on investing in solar electricity) - better than any bank can provide“ Ed Miliband, Leader, Labour Party. “ If the Government offered to pay you £1,000 a year for the next 25 years, in return for an up front investment of £12,500, you’d snap it up in a second. Well that’s pretty much the deal on offer this week after the Government finally revealed what it will pay those who install electricity generating solar panels – in and around their homes – through the new Feed in Tariffs. So what’s the catch? There isn’t one, says Miles Brignall” The Guardian “I just spent a shade under £17,000 on a 3.96 kW array of 22 PV panels. It's been up & running for 19 days now & has produced 391 kw. OK it's summer but it's pretty impressive. It's earning us 42.8pence per unit generated (41.3+1.5 for deemed export at 50%). It's currently reducing our imports by two thirds & will pay for itself in about 9 years. The Feed In Tarriff is inflation proofed, runs for 25 years & income is tax free. Now that has GOT to add value. Especially as everyone reckons power costs are going to surge”. Homeowner
