Buying solar panels is a solid investment, you need to make sure you choose the right one for you. The market is flooded with installers who claim they are the best. Always choose an installer who is a MCS Accredited. At Empower Energy we have been installing domestic and commercial solar for over 15 years.

MCS is a nationally recognised quality insurance scheme supported by the department for business, energy and industrial strategy. MCS is also an eligibility requirement for the Government's financial incentives, which include the Feed-in Tariff. If a solar panel installation is not MCS Accredited you will not be to able to claim your feed-in-tarriff.

The size of your roof is going to determine the number of panels that can fitted, which will influence the size of system that can be installed.

Initially we can use mapping software like Google Earth which will allow us to accurately measure your roof size. Using this data we can produce a desktop survey and calculate your production and savings

Look for a solar installer who is MCS Accredited and has several years experience in the industry. Your solar should produce an initial desktop survey or visit you to determine the size of system that can be installed. This should be followed up with a no obligation quote outlining the costs and savings you can expect to make.

The cost of a solar panel system can vary depending on the number of panels and type of inverter. Any MCS installer should provide you with a detailed breakdown of the costs associated.

Since 2008, solar panels has been deemed 'permitted development' and therefore planning permission is not required, unless the building is listed or in a conservation area.
