Solar Panel Maintenance and Cleaning: Essential Steps for Longevity Solar panels are a great investment that provide you with clean, cheap, renewable energy which can set you up for many years to come. Another advantage of having a solar panel system installed is that they require very minimal maintenance due to solar panels being built tough to withstand a variety of extreme weather conditions, also having no moving parts in their makeup that would usually be affected by rust or break down. While a solar panel system is mostly self-sufficient, it is generally recommended that you provide your ..read more

In recent years, solar panels have gained significant traction as a renewable and sustainable source of power. As more individuals and businesses turn to solar energy to reduce their carbon footprint and lower their energy costs, it’s become more important than ever to understand the financial benefits associated with this technology. In the United Kingdom, the government recognizes the importance of solar energy and has implemented various tax breaks and incentives to encourage its adoption. This article explores two key incentives provided by the UK Government for solar energy: capital allow ..read more

Solar panels are a great form of renewable energy that can provide many benefits to the user and the environment. Typically, a solar panel system average lifespan can range from 30-40 years, but what happens to your solar panels when they have run their course and need to be replaced? Is solar panel recycling possible? Many people think that solar panels end up on landfill. But this is simply not true. Solar Panels can be recycled when they have reached the end of their life cycle. A Solar PV system is made up of solar cells – made up of silicon, glass, EVA, backsheet and the frame. All of the ..read more

Top Benefits of Solar Energy Solar energy is the leading source of renewable energy for our homes and businesses, due to its ability to harness abundant energy from the sun and its vital role in reducing carbon emissions. In this blog, we will shine a light on some of the top reasons for embracing solar energy! Environmental Impact: Solar energy is a clean and green power source that produces no harmful emissions, no greenhouse gasses or fossil fuels.

01. WHO ARE WORLD OF SOLAR? World of Solar are one of the leading brands within the solar industry. In 2006, World of Solar’s innovation revolutionised the way we manage Solar PV systems. Their technology also changed the way we could capitalise on our solar generation. They are an essential part of Solar history, and here’s all the reasons why. 02. WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF WORLD OF SOLAR? INDIVIDUAL PANEL PERFORMANCE With traditional string inverters, the output energy of your system, is effected by the weakest operating Solar panel. This is because they are all directly interlinked. How ..read more

An even more pertinent question maybe, how much do you waste by leaving household gadgets on standby? Many households may find themselves arguing over these issues when the electricity bills arrive. Research shows that, on average, households are wasting between £50 – £86 a year, out of a £530 annual electricity bill, by not switching off household appliances. This equates to up to 16% of an average electricity bill being wasted. The figure is higher than previous estimates and is the result of research by the Energy Saving Trust (EST) and two government departments, the Department for Envir ..read more

CIGS solar panels generate nearly 90 per cent less CO2 emissions. CIGS solar panels made in Sweden generate nearly 90 per cent less CO2 emissions than silicon based solar panels made in China A new life cycle assessment (LCA) shows that the CIGS solar panels made by Swedish solar energy technology firm Midsummer, made in Sweden, generate nearly 90 per cent less CO2 emissions than silicon based solar panels made in China, and only one per cent of the greenhouse gases that European coal power emits. ”For a conscious consumer of renewable energy, whether private or commercial, it is instrument ..read more

Learn how energy from the sun becomes clean electricity that powers UK homes and businesses. Sunny’ may not be the first word that springs to mind when thinking about the UK’s weather. And yet, there is 6.14GW of installed solar dotting the rooftops of homes in the UK – that’s double the capacity of our largest fossil fuel power station. How do solar panels work? Solar panels are made out of photovoltaic cells (which is why generating electricity with solar panels is also called solar PV) that convert the sun’s energy into electricity. Photovoltaic cells are sandwiched between layers of se ..read more

As we leave the European Union, we have to compete in that wider world once again. Back in the 1970s, when we still had coal and no European Union, British companies worried about the impact of gas and electricity prices on their ability to compete. As we leave the European Union, we have to compete in that wider world once again, but fuel prices have doubled in the last decade alone. That is not a good outlook. Returning to the 1970s for a moment, manufacturing had most to lose. Office-based businesses used far less electricity and had little to fear. Today that is simply not the case: white ..read more
