The SEG is a contract offered by electricity providers to buy your surplus electricity. The contract also includes imported electricity. Rates vary and are presently around 5 to 5.6 pence per unit for export (February 2021).
Take care to check the conditions and details of any contract entered into.
UK generated more electricity from Solar & Wind Farms & other Renewals than Fossil Fuels, it was for an ENTIRE quarter for the first time!!
The Government has decided to end the Feed In Tariff with effect from 31 Mar 2019. BUT, do not despair, they are still going to continue paying the Export Tariff after FIT is closed!
We are now installing Renusol or K2 mounting systems with our PV installs. You can look at the systems here:

Reduce your Bills Green Solar Footprint helps you save money on electricity bills and protects you against the price rises imposed by the big utility companies. A Bonus? What! As well as reducing your electricity bills, you can also generate … Continue reading
On 19 July 2018 the Department of Business Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) published a consultation in which they state their intention to close the FIT scheme to new applicants from 1 April 2019, barring several exceptions. We have published an FAQ which helps explain the implications these proposals would have if they are introduced. If you have questions about the consultation, please contact BEIS at [email protected].

Storage Systems – Li-ion Battery Pack
The Battery Box products rely on the cutting-edge BYD Iron-Phosphate battery for the streamlined energy storage. B-Box 2.5-V2 has a lightweight wall mounting design which has been specially developed for use in small areas that require energy back-up.
Not only with the same batteries used on the BYD double-decker E-Bus in London, but all the batteries for the B-BOX are produced by the same fully automation traction battery production line. The B-BOX 2.5-V2, with BYD’s excellent Iron-Phosphate battery, has the superiorities of high reliability, high life-cycle and high temperature performance, as well as being environmentally friendly. The B-BOX2.5-V2 needs three components to work:
Battery provides energy to load , BMU is communication centre, Bracket is for mounting to the wall or Rack is for floor mounting. Please note this is battery only and it will not work without the BMU. This is the new 100% DOD version of B-Plus 2.5 battery. |

Inverters – Main Units
The completely redesigned Sunny Boy 1.5/2.5 is the perfect inverter for a small domestic PV system. Among other features, it enables an increase in consumption of self-generated power, allows versatile uses, and is very easy to integrate into the home network. The innovative design of the Sunny Boy 1.5/2.5 is not only easy to install, but also allows for quick DC and AC connections. Because it weighs just 9 kg, it can be suspended from just two screws, with no additional wall mounting bracket. Commissioning is equally easy, because the integrated user interface (Web UI) makes it possible to choose the necessary settings in next to no time – without opening the cover. With its focus on what really matters, the Sunny Boy 1.5/2.5 also offers impressive communication features. The intuitive user interface (Web UI) makes it possible to monitor system data on any smartphone, tablet, laptop or traditional PC. This enables the user to choose between local and online monitoring via Sunny Places and Sunny Portal. |

 Q Cells 320W Mono Q Peak Duo G5 Black Frame Panels – Monocrystallines
The new Q.PEAK DUO-G5 is a monocrystalline solar module with power classes up to 330 Wp and an efficiency of 19.9 %. Q.PEAK DUO-G5 solar modules offer higher yields over smaller surface areas. This is made possible by the new generation of Q.ANTUM’s world-record-holding cell concept which has now been combined with state-of-the-art circuitry half cells and a six-busbar design. The Q CELLS Anti LID Technology eliminates light induced degradation (LID), which can greatly reduce system performance, almost completely. Other conventional monocrystalline solar cells will lose much of their initial performance, once exposed to sunlight. With Q.PEAK DUO-G5 this is not the case, thanks to Anti LID Technology. |

LG MonoX® Plus
The LG MonoX® Plus is an extremely robust P-type module that maintains high performance by using LG’s LiLY Technology
MonoX® Plus with LiLY Technology
LiLY stands for ‘LID-Improvement for Lifetime Yield’. Conventional P-type solar modules suffer from initial performance degradation called LID(Light Induced Degradation). The combination of Boron and Oxygen is widely known as the main cause of LID. LiLY Technology suppresses the Boron-Oxygen association (and consequently the LID effect), by forming a Boron-Hydrogen pair in the cell manufacturing process
MonoX® Plus – Extreme Physical Durability
The LG MonoX® Plus’s stress endurance is rated to handle up to 6000 Pa on the front side and up to 5400 Pa on the rear side.
Improved Product Warranty
As well as the enhanced performance warranty, LG has extended the product warranty of the LG MonoX® Plus from 15 years to 25 years

Roof Integrated solar PV – CLEARLINE Fusion Why Choose Fusion?
Clearline fusion PV16 solar PV panels for roof integration are available in a range of power output and styles. Monocrystalline-black Monocrystalline silicon solar cells are cut from a block of silicon that has been grown as a single crystal. This produces deep black cells with a very high degree of colour uniformity both across the panel and between different panels. We couple these cells with a black backing sheet and a black frame for the last word in high specification aesthetics. Available as a 270Wp panel (product code PV16-270) and 300Wp panel (product code PV16-300). |
