A Shade Greener is a Renewable Electricity Generator that is utilising the Government initiated FIT Scheme, which commenced on 1st April this year, in order to install solar panel systems onto domestic properties in parts* of Yorkshire, Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire and Humberside. The company was initially looking for only 2000 homes, however due to huge demand it is now looking for at least 6000 homes.
How can they do this? A Shade Green doesn't give the panels to the Homeowner, not initially (see website). They simply install their panels on the Homeowner’s roof and let them use all the electricity that they generate for free, because under the FIT Scheme A Shade Greener will be paid a Generation Tariff for ALL the electricity that their panels generate whether that electricity is used, or not. This Tariff is guaranteed for 25 years. This means that A Shade Greener can let the Homeowner use this electricity entirely FREE OF CHARGE for 25 years too, as they will be paid for generating it.
A Shade Greener's scheme is particularly suitable for people who want Solar PV, but who can’t afford it, or for those who CAN afford it but would rather spend their money on another home improvement.
