Household energy bills increased by 54% in April 2022 and set to increase by a further 80% in October 2022. A further large price rise in January 2023 is also widely expected – the latest from Cornwall Insight, who accurately forecast the scale of the last two cap increases, is £5,387 or 52% above the October to December 2022 cap.
They also forecast further increases to £6,616 in the second quarter of 2023 and levels of around £5,900 in the third and fourth quarters of 2023, so there is no better time to apply for your FREE solar panels to off-set the extra price hike.
Solar panels are a clean renewable energy source that use daylight to provide electricity for your home. Installing solar panels in your home, allows you to generate your own renewable energy reducing your carbon footprint.
Solar panels are made out of photovoltaic (PV) cells that convert the sun's energy into electricity. This is then passed through an inverter to convert it into an alternating current, which can be fed into the home they are attached to.
Solar cells do not need direct sunlight to work and you don't have to live in an area with wall-to-wall sunshine to generate solar energy. Solar panels work even through clouds. This also applies to property location as with the latest technology available a home does not need to have a south facing roof. However, the more sunshine you get, the more energy you'll generate.
The solar panel systems that we install are able to generate 2.4kWh and above, which can be used to power any of the electric devices around the home.
