We aim to cut the cost of installing PV solar panels for schools, factories and government organisations. These certified panels are also suitable for larger home installations. 

We can ship these panels anywhere in the world CIF

GRID CONNECTED SYSTEM

The integrated design combination of the grid connected system reduces costs of the support structure, where the PV array can replace the common construction materials.

OFF GRID SYSTEM

The PV off-grid system is ideal for remote areas such as mountains and islands. Such an installation can provide maintenance free 220V/50Hz alternating current anywhere in the world.

Why Go Solar ?

Global climate change and the need to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, ever increasing energy bills.

All of these play an increasingly important role in the management of any building’s energy use. With energy efficiency high on the list of achievable improvements, the inclusion of a solar PV system goes further and can help transform a building from being an energy consumer to being an energy generator.

Solar is suitable for use in both urban and rural locations and is adaptable to almost any building which has sufficient exposure to light.

The value of solar electricity

There are financial advantages to installing solar PV, these include: avoided imported electricity costs, selling your electricity to energy suppliers and Renewable Obligation Certificates (ROCs). The amount of revenue you can generate is linked to the size of the system installed and its performance.

Renewable Obligation Certificates

Under the Renewables Obligation Order 2002, small generators of electricity are entitled to Renewable Obligation Certificates (ROCs) which the generator has the option to trade with their energy

A 5kW system could generate 3-4 ROC’s per year. ROCs are certificates for the total generation of the PV roof, not just for the exported electricity.

One ROC is equivalent to approximately 1,000 kilowatt hours (kWh) of renewable electricity. ROCs are registered by the energy regulator OFGEM. In order to sell them, you need to register as an electricity generator and complete the relevant paperwork. Rates paid will differ every year. Please note, the income from ROCs may be greater than the amount you get by selling your electricity.

Offset your carbon dioxide emissions

As building regulations become more stringent, emphasising requirements for reduced carbon dioxide emissions from buildings, a correctly and appropriately installed solar PV system can provide an effective solution; for every 1kWh of electricity generated, 0.43 kilograms of carbon dioxide is offset. Additionally, for every 1 kilowatt peak (kWp) of PV installed, annual carbon dioxide emissions could be reduced by as much as 0.33 tonnes.

Life on Earth

All life depends on energy because life is the process of using energy to lower entropy. On Earth, people and societies consume fossil fuels as the primary source of energy. About a third of the world's total supply of oil has already been consumed by man. With development exploding in countries such as China, demand is rapidly increasing. If we don't do something now, our children will inherit a disaster of world-wide proportions. Once the fossil fuels are used up, modern life as we know it will stop, and we will no longer be able to afford to use the fossil fuels for their other uses as chemicals for making materials of all kinds, upon which we depend.

Sol, our sun, shines about 1000 watts of power onto each square meter of the Earth. This is used by plant life to sustain the ecosystem of life. The remaining power is reflected into space, drives the weather, and eventually turns into heat. If we take a portion of this energy from the sun, it can eventually replace our energy needs currently met by fossil fuels, which life took millions of years to make. The use of solar energy does not add more heat to the earth, does not create green house gases which can affect the climate, and it leaves fossil fuels for their more valuable uses as raw materials.

Photovoltaic solar cells are reaching the cost levels that will make them the most economical and environment friendly source of energy. As demand for them grows, the efficiencies of scale will continue to lower their costs. If every rooftop were covered with solar cells optimally pointed toward the sun, and if this energy were fed into the grid and into storage, this could satisfy a major portion of our energy requirements.
