Abel Environmental specialises in both solar PV and solar thermal solutions for developers, national housebuilders and commercial contractors.
We'll ensure your scheme achieves the highest standards of energy efficiency and meets the latest renewable energy requirements.
Perhaps the most feasible investment in solar thermal is for commercial applications as they tend to have strong demand that is steady in its requirements and the demand is usually 365 days per year which improves the viability and payback of the systems.
Anthony Dickins— We had AES install our Solar panels in 2014 and the work was completed in good time
Solar Voltaics was established in 2010 and has developed an excellent reputation as a leading commercial scale solar installation company.
Solar PV is now more frequently being specified in new-build projects and hence much of our business is turning to supporting solar for the construction sector.
The main legislative requirement surrounding renewable energy in the construction sector is Part L of the Building Regulations.
This demands that all new build developments must generate a minimum of 10% of electricity demand on-site from renewable technology.
Solar thermal systems are large, flat, black panels that you stick on your roof and at first glance look quite similar to solar PV panels - indeed, you can buy designs that look identical aesthetically.
Their job is to provide a property with hot water by using the sun's rays to heat water flowing through pipes on the panel.
First of all, the solar collector panels capture the power of the sun and heat the water that is passed slowly though pipes inside the collectors.
It then passes through a coil in the household hot water cylinder or heat store, where it heats the domestic hot water supply.
Solar PV systems sometimes require planning permission.
Those retro-fitted to pitched roofs of residential properties are often permitted development, which means you do not need planning permission.
In some areas of the country such as designated areas, permitted development rights are more restricted.
For more information on planning permission for solar pv panels visit the Planning Portal.
If you are unsure about your situation with regards to planning, we would be happy to advise you.
Current Generation can provide a full comprehensive planning service from as little as 300 + VAT and fees.
Solar Heating has become a more popular option in the face of global warming and energy efficiency.
Designs have come a long way in a relatively short space of time - so, what you might still think is an expensive choice, could pleasantly surprise you.
Solar pv panels offer an excellent way for you to protect yourself from rising energy costs and to reduce your carbon footprint.
S & P Heating Ltd will supply and install entirely new systems, or enhance your existing heating system.
