Improving your BER score to B3 or above can qualify you for a much reduced green mortgage, saving you tens of thousands over the lifetime of the mortgage.

Installing a smart solar photovoltaic or solar PV system will also reduce your carbon footprint, because you are producing your own, clear and sustainable electricity.

Modern solar panels are very efficient and generate a lot of power. A typical solar panel should be a minimum of 430w power output, with an efficiency of at least 21.5%. The solar panels work by converting solar irradiance into a DC current, which the inverter converts into AC current, what we call “electricity “. The solar panels work in daylight and do not need direct sunlight, so whilst affected by the movement of the sun, solar irradiance permeates clouds, just at a reduced rate.
