Take Advantage Of The FIT Even If Your Roof Is Not Suitable For Solar Panels

WANT TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE UK GOVERNMENT FEED-IN-TARIFF?

Individuals can purchase installed PV systems on UK commercial rooftops that are already generating income.

10%+ YIELDS IN YEAR 1

These systems are already generating income at known irradiation levels and government feed-in-tariffs, giving a minimum of 10% net yield per annum.

INCOME WILL INCREASE WITH INFLATION

In the UK, the government’s feed-in-tariff increases in line with the Retail Price Index. In 2011 that figure is 4.7%, however in forecasts we use an average of 3%. At that rate the Year 25 asset yield would be 16.5% per annum.

CHOOSE YOUR SIZE & LOCATION FROM £15K

Installations are already in place and connected on commercial rooftops, residential rooftops and farm land. Choose your preferred location and sites range from up to 4kW, 10kW and 50kW.

OUTRIGHT OWNERSHIP

Purchasers acquire outright ownership of the installed PV equipment and the connection and income rights for the system via the 25 year UK feed in tariff.

FIRST TWO YEARS MAINTENANCE & MONITORING FREE

The EPC developer offers immediate peace of mind to the investor by providing the first 2 years operation, maintenance, and management included.

TAX EFFICIENT ‘CAPITAL ROLLOVER RELIEF’

Depending on your situation, you may be able to claim ‘capital rollover relief’ against the total amount invested. Speak with your tax advisor.

Polysolar develops PV Glass for the London Olympics and Qatar World Cup

Cambridge based solar technology company Polysolar has developed a hi-tech photovoltaic glass which could be used at next year’s Olympic Games in London and also the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar. Polysolar’s transparent PV glass has been designed for use by architects in windows, cladding and glass structures as a way of generating green energy. The glass is already in use in other countries and is able to generate 100w of energy from each pane of glass making it an effective way of generating clean energy from wall and roof space.

Explaining the idea behind the glass, Hamish Watson the founder of Polysolar said,

“Our product is different from any other solar panel on the market, because it can be used as a building material, making it a highly cost effective integral part of the building. Unlike traditional solar cells, which need to be southward facing, the glass can be positioned anywhere, so is more flexible for large scale architectural and engineering projects and hence it generates a higher yield.”

Importantly, Polysolar’s glass has received MCS certification for the UK feed-in tariff. This means that where installed, landlords will be able to generate revenue from the energy which the panes generate which is used or fed back into the national grid. The Ploysolar product will also have the attraction that where installed, property owners will see massive reductions in their electricity bills. Aside from the obvious financial benefits, Hamish Watson is well aware that the green credentials of solar pv technology will be very welcome by event organising committees.

“Our PV glass has generated a lot of interest and we are in discussions to install it at the 2012 Olympic village, where it could be used to help generate power for information displays across the site. We have also had early discussions with the organisers of the 2022 World Cup and the developers of London’s Walkie Talkie building – both projects are obviously quite exciting for our company.”
