Solar PV
Generating electricity and an income from the sun
![Page 5: Solar photovoltaic powerpoint](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061206/5483e0805806b5cc588b456d/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
What is Solar PV?
• Solar electricity systems capture the sun's energy using photovoltaic (PV) cells.
• The cells convert the sunlight into electricity, which can be used to run household appliances and lighting.
• PV cells don't need direct sunlight to work - you can still generate some electricity on a cloudy day

Key Factors about your Installation• The area of your roof will determine the size of the system
• The orientation of your roof may increase your output
• No planning permission will be needed in most cases

What equipment will we provide?
• Solar PV panels• Mounting equipment to suit where the panels are to be installed – i.e. pitched/flat roof• A solar inverter, which converts solar DC to grid AC electricity
• Cables, isolators and a consumer unit/distribution board for grid connection (off grid is also possible)
• An Ofgem approved generation meter (to take meter readings from when claiming your FIT payments)

How is a PV system installed?
• Solar panels can be mounted on un-shaded roofs, walls or ground using mounting systems
• DC cables connect panels in series to form “strings”
• These strings then feed back to the inverter usually located inside the building as close to the solar panels as possible
• A 4kW domestic PV system will usually take 1 day to install
• Every kW of electricity will be recorded on your generation meter

Solar Process

Incentives – Feed In Tariff (FIT)
• Solar Feed-in Tariffs (FiTs) were launched in the UK on 1st April 2010 Feed-in Tariffs for solar PV are:
• Tax free (for homeowners)
• Index linked to Retail Price Index
• Fixed & Guaranteed for 25 years

Incentives – Feed In Tariff (FIT)
FITs generate an income in 3 ways:1. You get paid FIT rate for every unit of solar electricity you generate
2. You get additional payments for any surplus energy being sold back to the grid
3. You save on your electricity bill by using as much of your solar energy on site as possible
