Mr Holloway has high electricity usage and after some research concluded that with the clean energy cashbacks incentive (feed-in tariff) and a 120m² south facing roof, solar PV would be an ideal investment.

EvoEnergy was commissioned by the University of Cambridge to design and install a 4.64kWp system consisting of 16 bespoke 290Wp mono-crystalline panels, installed on four custom fabricated solar ‘tree’ frames. The system has a predicted yearly output of 3,868 kWh/year, saving 2,197kgCO2/year. The project was the result of an open tender which EvoEnergy won due to their innovative and creative system design.

EvoEnergy prides itself on being in tune with the market and informing our customers of any market changes and opportunities that we see or think might happen.  We believe and trust the technology; on top of this the new Feed-in Tariff (FIT) incentive has made investing in Solar PV a sound financial investment.    The recent press coverage of ‘solar for free’ has driven interest in the concept through the roof, and subsequently this has led to floods of enquiries to us.  The idea of free solar may sound great, but is this the right way to go?  Should you leave your own money in the bank and get solar for free, or should you stump up yourself with the aim of keeping the FIT money? Or should you finance your purchase with money from the bank?

The solar installation company says that since the FiT was established on April 1st, there has been a notable increase in the availability of 'green' jobs…
