A new era in energy generation has begun
Why we're passionate about solar panels.
Solar panels are fast becoming a popular way to invest in your home and your energy future - the golden age of cheap energy is over, so reducing your dependency on ever increasingly expensive fossil fuels.
Solar panels & energy news
In a court judgement yesterday, the feed in tariffs rate was reinstated to 41.3 pence per kWh after the government was found to have cut the tariff unlawfully.
Solar electric panels
Again this will create the same scenario which occurred in December when home owners scrambled to complete their installations before a deadline date. Read the rest of this entry »
The end of the world scenarios is as fascinating as much as it is feared. The end of the Mayan 5,125 year cycle is now upon us and a new epoch in human and planetary time will soon arrive – or so goes the theory!
Humanities impact on Spain
Three major factors which may alter or devastate our modern civilisation, leaving out events such as asteroids, solar flares or pandemics, are already in play, and we must ignore these at our peril.
Here are my predictions for the beginning of our end. Read the rest of this entry »
I would like to begin this article with a simple plea to the solar industry.
Self-generation technology
These phrases, which are used within our industries, are doing us a disservice because they demean, belittle and simply paint an incorrect picture of the benefits which these types of systems provide. Read the rest of this entry »
Did you know that there are more solar panels installed in the north of the United Kingdom than the south, proving once and for all that solar does work well in the British climate?
Solar is popular up north
This data covers the period 2010/ 20011 as the feed in tariffs, which reward pioneer adopters of both solar electric and solar heating type installations, give a guaranteed income as well as free electricity.
The adoption rate of solar panels has increased greatly since the feed in tariffs were introduced in April 2010. 260MW of power are now being generated, with 48,460 separate installations across the UK. Read the rest of this entry »
With the overwhelming success of the feed in tariffs for solar panels in 2010 and 2011, I am sure you have noticed them on the roofs of homes in your area, and in the future, will continue to do so at an ever-increasing rate.
The reason for this is simple.
Solar heating and solar electric
With the reduction of the feed in tariffs scheme rates this week and with all the negative media attention that this has brought, you may be forgiven for thinking that solar panels are a technology of the past, like teasmaids or the unforgettable Sinclair C5’s.
The era of solar panels
The reality however, will be more and more solar panels will continue to adorn homes up and down the country and especially worldwide. How can I be so certain of this?
Put simply, energy costs, both nationally and internationally will continue to rise at quicker and quicker rates with all of us worldwide having to find ways to alleviate this pain on a more long term basis. Read the rest of this entry »
Could Iran cause an energy crunch? It’s been said that the line between order and disorder is the thin blue line of the law. I would also like to enhance this saying by exchanging the word ‘line’ for ‘pipeline’.
Oil dependence
The pipeline concerned is the one carrying oil supplies from Iran which, over the last decade, European countries such as Spain, Italy and Greece have become very dependent on.
These countries also have to deal with the fact that their ailing economies are dependent on this risky and possibly unstable state, with other European and British communities facing problems too if these country’s economies fail. Read the rest of this entry »
I doff my cap to the BBC’s stunning series called ‘Frozen Planet’ (Catch up on iplayer) which has captured the extreme frozen poles in an amazing deluge of picture perfect realism and tell it like it is, approach.
Help me
The programmes approach to dealing with the effects, causes and irrefutable proof of our planet changing and changing fast.
The thin slither of gas which encompasses the giant rock we call home is being poisoned slowly and the symptoms of a fever like state are beginning to emerge. Just like our immune system , the earth is beginning to fight back through heat generation.
It’s amazing how the life giving planet acts just like our bodies immune systems so when under threat from micro-organisms (which is what we are in planetary terms) it too turns up the heat to tray and destroy the problem. Unfortunately we are the problem.
A moment to ponder… Read the rest of this entry »
“It is with great pleasure that we wish to congratulate you on the effective and efficient installation of our solar electric panels and we look forward to reaping the benefits in due course.”
We chose the solar electric and solar heating systems which could be installed to meet our environmentally friendly and cost effective requirements. Read the rest of this entry »
Solar Panels News-The stupidity of some people knows no bounds, but you would think that our leaders in government would know better, wouldn’t you?
United Kingdom energy uncertainty
I am afraid not, and I am afraid for the future if choices like this are being implemented.
The recent decision to cut the subsidies to homeowners through the very successful feed in tariffs scheme was necessary to help reduce the deficit. Or so we thought!
A crazy decision to build more road infrastructure has left me gobsmacked at its stupidity. Read the rest of this entry »
