Renewable Energy
Renewable energy has a key role to play in reducing CO2 emissions and, in particular, the installation of solar technology is an effective way of reducing a building's carbon footprint. Solar technology is great for the environment, as it has no emissions and is assured for the next 4 billion years! It might also be worth noting that incorporating solar into a property is likely to increase its value. If you look at it in another way, houses with solar are only marginally affected by increasing fuel prices, therefore making them an extremely attractive option to potential buyers.
Apart from reducing the amount of fossil fuels used, and the resultant savings in annual fuel bills, the reduction in harmful emissions will help minimise the long term effects on the earths climate.

Solar Photovoltaics (PV)
Solar photovoltaics (or Solar PV as it is commonly known) utilises free energy from the sun to generate electricity. With the installation of Solar PV modules on the roof, the system will not only supplement a dwelling's electricity supply but will also satisfy current building regulations by providing at least 10% renewable energy. Solar PV modules rely on daylight (rather than radiation) to generate power through the use of photovoltaic cells. Solar PV modules are simple to install as they are fixed to a roof in the same way as solar thermal collectors but instead of pipework, cables are used. The cables are connected to an inverter which converts the DC electricity produced to AC electricity (AC electricity comes from the national grid) which is either consumed by the household or sold back to the national grid. By combining Solar PV and Solar Thermal up to 25% of an average dwellings energy requirements can be met.
