Ten reasons to buy Solar PV from Planet Solar today!
There has been a lot of media coverage and speculation regarding Solar Photovoltaic systems recently, especially in terms of domestic systems up to 4kWp. At Planet Solar we know the current activity with the government is important, however we should not lose sight of the great benefits you get from installing a Solar PV system on your home – and with more changes to the feed-in-tariff scheme highly likely within the next 12 months, now is the perfect time to purchase your system:
Reason No.1 – You get paid for every kilowatt hour you generate
Putting aside the whole feed-in-tariff fiasco, whichever way you look at it, you are still getting money for generating your own electricity. In addition to this, you also get an export payment for every kilowatt hour you send back to the grid.
Reason No.2 – Payments are guaranteed for 25 years
Whilst there has been a lot of media coverage and changes to the feed-in-tariff, the fact remains that whatever the level of payment, you are still guarnateed an income for 25 years. With rising electricity costs and a growing concern for the environment, financial incentives are often not the main driver behind installing a Solar PV system, so receiving generation and export payments for 25 years is an added bonus!
Reason No.3 – EPC ratings could affect tariffs going forward
On the 9th February 2012, the Department of Energy & Climate Change is expected to announce plans for the feed-in-tariff going forward. This could include lower tariffs for those properties which will not meet a certain energy rating. Contact our team today and one of our expert energy consultants can advise you on how to make your home more energy effficient.
Reason No.4 – The quality of Solar PV modules used by Planet Solar is at its highest quality
At Planet Solar we pride ourselves on our product quality and as such as proud to be working with leading German manufacturer REW SOLAR® who supply a Premium Plus module. This is currently the only module which comes with a positive only power tolerance and a performance guarantee of 30 years at 90%.
Reason No.5 – Protect yourself from increasing energy prices
Whilst recent media coverage has stipulated that some electricity companies have reduced their prices, the reality is that electricity prices have been rising and will continue to rise over the next 25 years. By generating your own electricity you reduce your dependency on electricity suppliers, and can protect yourself from the impact of rising prices – as well as saving money right now.
Reason No.6 – Save money in tough times
It is not just energy prices increasing, the cost of living is rising and borrowing is getting more difficult. In tough economic times, saving any money is a positive, and with a Solar PV system from Planet Solar you can save significant amounts off your electricity bills, which is more money in your pocket!
Reason No.7 – Solar PV systems are currently at very competitive prices
The price of modules has come down, and whilst there are many other cost factors involved in the design and installation of a Solar PV system, prices have come down in the past year which makes Solar PV a great investment. A 4kWp system could have cost you around £16,000 a year ago, however it is now possible to get a 4kWp system for around £10,000.
Reason No.8 – Reduce your carbon footprint and go green
Generating your own electricity helps reduce carbon emissions, which is beneficial for the environment. For some customers, the green aspect is one of the most important factors. Even if it is not top of your list, there is no mistaking that it is good to do your bit for the planet!
Reason No.9 – Planet Solar have a dedicated in-house team
Many installers outsource a lot of their services, however at Planet Solar we have a dedicated team of designers, installers, electricians and support staff. In fact, the only thing we outsource is our scaffolding and we work with selected companies who we have strong relationships with. This gives our customers peace of mind and reassurance that every stage of your installation will be handled in a professional and efficient manner.
Reason No.10 – Solar PV is still a great investment – even after 3rd March 2012!
The Planet Solar fitting schedule is now booked up until 5th March 2012, however if you are looking for ways to generate your own electricity, save on your energy bills, safeguard against future rising costs, reduce your carbon footprint and receive an income for every kilowatt hour of electricity you generate, then Solar PV is still the best choice of renewable energy for you.
