4 What is renewable energy? Renewable energy as defined by Wikipedia: Renewable energy is energy generated from natural resources - such as sunlight, wind, rain, tides and geothermal heat which are (renewable) naturally replenished. 4

5 Why Solar Photovoltaic (PV) panels? British Gas is technology agnostic and has the capability to install all types of microgeneration technology. We offer advise on the suitability for wind, hydro, heat pumps, biomass and solar PV and thermal. Currently demand for solar PV is highest and suits more properties. Solar PV panels are considered to be the microgeneration technology offering the best fit for most locations in terms of capital cost, technical feasibility, maintenance, operation, payback period and financial risk.. Solar PV Established technology Checklist Predictable yields 25 year performance warranty Low maintenance Minimal planning Ease of installation Building integrated design 5

6 How does the Feed in Tariff work? Clean Energy Cashback (also known as the Feed-in Tariff) is a Government initiative designed to encourage the installation of renewable energy systems. It rewards individuals and organisations that generate electricity from renewable sources. Feed in Tariff payments will be made for at least 25 years from date of installation for electricity generated from solar PV panels. This rate is adjusted annually to allow for inflation (RPI) Earn Generation Tariff A fixed rate paid for every kilowatt hour (kwh) of electricity generated. Rate dependent on system size and technology. Export Tariff An additional payment made for every kilowatt hour (kwh) of surplus electricity fed into the National Grid. Save Reduced Costs + = The savings you could make on your electricity bill by not having to buy all of the electricity usually required from your supplier. Total benefits 6

13 Process areas to bear in mind Can cause extra work and/or delays Planning Conservation areas Multiple connections DNO approvals Building Control Notifications Funding/Payments 50% 14 days before installation and you may be credit checked Conservation areas - Bathgate Road Bertham Cottages Copse Hill Dennis Park Crescent Drax Avenue Dunmore Road Durham Road John Innes Merton Park John Innes Wilton Crescent Kenilworth Avenue Lambton Road Leopald Road Merton Hall Road Mitcham Cricket Green Pelham Road South Park Gardens Upper Morden Vineyard Hill Road Wandle Valley Westcombe Avenue Wimbledon Broadway Wimbledon Chase Wimbledon Hill Road Wimbledon North Wimbledon Village Wimbledon West Wimbledon Windmill Wool Road

14 Solar Orientation Best: Facing South at % loss if low pitch or SE/SW 10-15% losses if East / West 30% Loss if in South Facade 14

15 Calculating Energy MCS quotations required to base output on figures per kwp given by SAP (the BRE) Categories in quite wide groups, Examples: South facing, 30 Pitch: 834 kwh/kwp SE or SW facing, 30 Pitch: 798 kwh/kwp E or W facing, 30 Pitch: 709 kwh/kwp South Façade at 90 : 579 kwh/kwp 15

16 Detailed simulation analysis:

17 Why might the Estimate change? The condition of the roof. Access to the roof, additional/complex scaffolding may be required to maintain a safe working area. The roof type, shape and tile type. Access into loft space for installers and equipment. Space for inverter and AC/DC isolators. Existing electrical installation not in accordance with latest regulations.
