    Solar Electricity / PV (photovoltiacs)

    Cross Country are accredited under MCS to install Solar PV systems. We create bespoke systems to suit your requirements, tailoring to your space and budget. Your project manager will guide you through the whole process. 
     
    Solar electricity systems capture the sun's energy using photovoltaic (PV) cells and convert it into electricity which can be used to run your household appliances. But the benefits are larger that this, generating your own electricity in this way:
    • Cuts your fuel bills by using your own electricity to power the appliances in your home. The Energy Saving Trust say a typical system could generate about 40% of a household's needs.
    • Feeds electricity back into the National Grid and collect the 'Feed-in Tariff'. Feed-In Tariffs (FIT) provides a guaranteed rate for each unit of electricity generated and exported.
    • Cuts your carbon footprint. Solar electricity is green, renewables energy and doesn't release any harmful carbon dioxide (CO2) or other pollutants. A typical home PV system could save around 1tonne of CO2 per year.
    The Energy Saving Trust provide free, independent and local energy saving advice. You can call your local office on 0800 512 012.
