Our solar electric panels use the energy from the sun to generate electricity with no waste and no emissions - this can then be used to run appliances and lighting.

A solar electric system uses a series of Photovoltaic (PV) cells in a panel to convert daylight into electricity. The greater the intensity of light, the greater the flow of electricity.

The Solar photovoltaic system is particularly good news for electric AGA owners, the renewable energy will supplement the AGA electricity supply and store the energy usefully in the form of heat.

Solar electric systems produce no greenhouse gases when generating electricity. A typical domestic system can save approximately 1.2 tonnes of carbon dioxide per year, adding up to almost 30 tonnes over a system’s lifetime (Source: Energy Saving Trust January 09). And best of all, you can actually earn money every year for 25 years through the Government incentive – the Feed In Tariff means that the homeowner will be paid 21p per kWh (from 8th December 2011).
