Summary of Solar Power

Why Solar Power?

Political
The UK is the first country in the world to have a legally binding long-term framework to cut carbon emissions, leading the way to create a low carbon economy. The Kyoto Protocol was adopted on the 11th December 1997 by 186 countries and is focused on the stabilisation of greenhouse gases and the dangerous effects on the climate by man. In the UK, The Climate Change Act was introduced 2008, which set out a path to reduce carbon consumption by 80% of 1990 levels by 2050.

Legislation
Alongside the Climate Change Act, new legislation was introduced so that if a property is to be sold, put up for rent, or constructed, an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is now required by law. The EPC is used to understand the UK's housing stock, a starting place, if you like, to the long road ahead towards a sustainable future. The certificate gives information of the energy consumption of the property, and what measures can be made to improve its energy efficiency. Solar Power can be an integral part of almost every EPC review in making each property more energy efficient.

The best person to assess if Solar Power is the right investment for you is an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA) in your town, who can assess the potential financial benefits. As the Green House adviser is guaranteed to be based in your town, they not only care about you, but also the community in which they live. We believe that this provides an additional, objective view on solar power as an investment. Our local solar installers can then give you all the information you need to know about how the panels work, and what they would provide.
