Welcome to Eco Solar Equipment, the Centre of Excellence in Renewable Energy
Increasing awareness of environmental issues, coupled with the spiraling energy prices and a reliance on foreign resources, has led a growing number of people and Government to turn to green renewable energy systems in both the new build and the retrofit housing stock. The market is expected to grow to £60 Billion.
To meet this escalating demand, ESE is building a network of authorised installation companies providing the UK market with a fully comprehensive range of complete Solar Hot Water and Photovoltaic systems.
Authorised ESE installation companies are given comprehensive training, access to a complete range of products online as well as technical and marketing support available 24 hours a day, see Member Benefits.
ESE supplies only the best quality Solar Hot Water and Photovoltaic technology.
Complete systems with full product and technical support.
Each installation can be specifically tailored for each customer using the huge range of components selected to build each system.
"Government cash back scheme for solar photovoltaic panels offers chance to turn your roof into a power station."
What is the Feed in Tariff (FIT)
From 1st April this year the Government Feed in Tariff (also called the Clean Energy Cash-back) pays a property owners an incentive for energy generated by renewable energy systems such as solar panels. This is designed to encourage a lower carbon lifestyle.
How much money will a householder get for his or her electricity?
The rates will vary depending on the size of the installation. For an ideally positioned 4kWp system the estimated annual output is 3200kWh and the FIT payment would be 41.3p for every kilowatt-hour produced being approximately £1350 per annum. This multiplied by 25 years i.e £33,750 is the total FIT’s payment that will accrue to a system of this size.
For a larger roof or an agricultural/commercial building, a 4-10 kWp system would attract a FIT payment of 36.1p per kWh. 10 to 100 kWp systems would attract 31.4p per kWh.
In addition properties generating electricity would see a reduction in their electricity bills as they would be using a lot less from the National Grid.
The additional electricity produced by these installations and not used would be exported back to the National Grid and would attract an extra 3p per kWh, in addition to the standard tariff.
What are the benefits of investing in solar photovoltaic panels?
The FIT payments are guaranteed by the Government for 25 years and are tax free and index linked.
The return on investment (ROI) is 7-10
How many panels would a house need?
An average size house would be able to take a 2kWp system which would typically comprise 12-16 panels (approximately 16m2). A larger outbuilding might be able to house a 10kWp installation, about 50 panels (approximately 65m2)
