Carrino Eco

With the Earth's natural resources quickly depleting it's important to look at alternatives. Solar energy offers a very clean and practical solution for powering the UK's homes and buildings - whether a school, farm, business premise or hospital. Solar Photovoltaic (or Solar PV as it is also known) makes a lot of sense - both in terms of green energy generation and financial investment. Through the feed-in tariff (FIT) you will actually get paid to generate clean, green electricity via solar panels.

Many people believe that your property has to be south facing with a 35 degree pitch in order for a Solar Photovoltaic System to be viable. Location, roof pitch and roof orientation are just some of the factors that will affect your returns. As each property is unique, we strongly recommend that one of Carrino Eco's trained energy advisors performs a free survey in order to give you a true representation of what you could expect from a Solar PV system. Many people believe that a property has to be facing due south in order to benefit from having solar panels.

Carrino Eco is a privately owned and run company, with branches in Mansfield and Huddersfield. We are committed to giving our customers, whether they are Residential, Commercial or Public Sector the best advice and service we can. As a father and business owner I am only too aware of the effects that rising energy costs are having on our lives from all directions like never before. The renewable energy sector is in its infancy in the UK. However, by taking action now you can not only benefit financially through Government backed incentives, but also by knowing you are doing your bit in leaving a cheaper to power planet for our children and children's children to benefit from.

A common misconception about Solar PV is that your property has to be perfectly positioned in order to make it financially viable. It is true that for some properties Solar PV is not an option, but as you can see from our 'Typical Returns' examples, a Solar PV installation can be a viable and rewarding investment. Take a look at our case studies to see what Carrino Eco has done for its customers and how much return each solar pv system is estimated to generate.

Solar Photovoltaic, or Solar PV as it is known, is a system that enables you to use solar energy to generate green and cost effective electricity. The free electricity that you don't use is automatically sold to the National Grid in order to provide additional tax free income. Generally you are looking at a greater than 10% pa return on your investment. However, when you consider that the income you receive is tax free, Solar PV has an added advantage over other investments. The Solar Feed-in Tariff is index linked to RPI, therefore the payment you receive tracks the cost of living year on year.
