Solar PV Systems & Photovoltaic Systems from Ecolution Renewables

Photovoltaic Systems (PV)

Photovoltaic systems convert the sun’s light directly into electricity providing efficiencies in the region of 15%.

As energy prices continue to rise Photovoltaic systems have become a viable alternative within many applications, both residential and commercial. The ‘pay back’ term has been reduced significantly in recent years with more efficient panels and more effective installation methods.

Photovoltaic systems are usually installed on the roof of a building and the energy produced can be used immediately or, if there is any surplus energy produced, can be sold back to the National Grid. Photovoltaic systems do not replace the use of electricity from the National Grid but supplement that energy, reducing usage carbon emissions and costs.

These systems work in all weather, as long as there is daylight, and the average lifespan of a system is in the range of 25-30 years. This requires lower levels of maintenance than other alternative energy products.

Photovoltaic systems are ideal for use in both commercial and residential buildings with the size of system and the number of modules used being adjusted to suit the particular project.

These systems provide a neutral impact solution to meet energy efficiency targets within buildings. In an age of increasing energy costs, PV systems can provide significant cost savings over the lifespan of the system.

Solar Hot Water

Solar Hot Water systems use the sun’s energy to heat hot water through solar collection panels. This is a simple system that supplements the heating of water in a property by traditional methods using electricity, oil or gas.

These systems can be used in both residential and commercial applications, storing water in hot water cylinders until required. SHW systems will often provide sufficient hot water without the use of additional heating during the summer and autumn months and provide ‘pre-heated’ water in the darker winter months, which is cheaper to bring to the required temperature.

A Solar Hot Water System works in conjunction with your traditional water heating system, supplementing available hot water and thus reducing energy usage and cost. The systems work side-by-side to ensure hot water is always available from the most cost efficient route available.

Our experience in delivering large scale district heating systems powered by solar is second to none.
