Are you considering having solar panels installed on your property, but not sure if it would pay off? Thanks to the Energy Saving Trust you can now check to see how much you could benefit from solar energy online. Using their Solar Energy Calculator you can estimate how much income and saving you could receive by installing Solar PV panels to your home.
With this tool you can estimate an income from the Government’s Feed-in Tariffs scheme, compared to your installation costs. The result calculated is based on an income of over 25 years depending on installation date and generation rate, which is estimated on today’s prices as they could rise or fall over the next 25 years.

Obviously this tool will only give you a prediction as solar energy does rely on the sun, but overall you could benefit from 65% of your home’s annual electricity use generated through Solar PV (based on a medium installation on a small semi-detached house). Not only this but you would considerably reduce your carbon footprint and add value to your home.

For an accurate quote and to find out more about installing Solar PV panels to your home, please contact us direct. Our qualified engineers are not salesmen, they will give you professional advice about your installation and guide you through the best choice for your property.

NGPS Ltd helps Corfe Community Pre school go Solar .

NGPS were please to help Corfe Pre School with the installation of a solar PV system. This school desperately wanted solar and was not in a position to fund the installation. So NGPS supplied and installed the system at 50% of its market value and will wait for local fundraising before getting paid. NGPS did this as a thank you to the Purbecks for the support shown to our business.

The school has nine Schott Mono 190 modules which will provide them with a guaranteed income of £600 a year and reduce the electrical import costs for the next 25 years with a FIT contract. This system will also serve as a teaching tool showing future generations the benefits of protecting the planet.

NGPS were proud to be asked install the PV system to this DIY twin sun tracking solar system in a back garden near Wimborne. This DIY twin tracking system was built by Mr B. a retired nuclear scientist and will generate better returns than a fixed roof system. Mr B. built the complete tracking assembly from plans he devised himself and we supplied and installed two arrays comprising 10 Schott Mono 190 modules with Sunny boy inverters. The system is currently working on a timeclock programme whilst Mr B. designs the sun spot tracker. This DIY systems is at the edge of the orchard on two concrete pads and looks superb.

This system will generate over £2000 a year and reduce the homes electrical import costs. This income is tax free and index linked and guaranteed for 25 years.
