Photovoltaics (PV), commonly known as solar panels, harness energy from the sun and convert it into electricity for use in your home. The electricity generated by solar panels is not only free but also renewable and environmentally friendly. It is a low-carbon energy source that provides a continuous supply, which can be stored in batteries for later use. Solar power has become one of the most popular renewable energy technologies across the UK, offering an excellent way to combat rising energy costs with free electricity.

Solar PV Grant for Homeowners and Tenants:
Under the Energy Company Obligation (ECO4) scheme, you may qualify for a grant to install a solar system. This grant is available to both homeowners and private tenants, subject to an assessment of your property’s existing energy performance. A current Energy Performance Report (EPR) is required for eligibility, which will be provided free of charge, regardless of whether you already have an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC).
