    In Roof systems and suppliers

    Hi Guys, anyone been doing in-roof systems? We did one with the Renusol system not too long ago but found it didn't really suit UK roofs. Like the look of the Easy Roof, anyone got any feedback on it or others? Cheers. e

    Sunpower E20 327W panels

    The only jobs we have in the pipeline at the moment are Sunpower. We are often quoting against the BenQ but the full 25 year manufacturers warranty is worth paying extra for in many customers opinions. The most recent one we signed up believes the 25 years will add value if he comes to sell in...

    Energy Day ob Radio 5live today

    I was aware that since the banks mugged us energy use has come down due to lower economic activity and lower production but didn't know it started as early as 05. Rising costs and efficiency measures must have played a part in this too.

    Energy Day ob Radio 5live today

    Not Massively from what i heard. OK so i did listen for a bit in the morning when Nicky Campbell was on, got annoyed and turned it off. I put i back on after lunch when Richard Bacon was on, got annoyed and turned it off. The very basic objections went unanswered and the people who were...

    Grid Capacity

    I had an interesting conversation with my local DNO planner a few weeks ago after i made an inquiry for a 30kWp barn system for a local farmer. It seems there's no export capacity left on the 11kV lines for a few miles around due to a solar farm not too far away, the most my client can have is...

    We have a GreenDealer locally who's doing very well, loads of customers. Uses energy from a PV system his landlord installed to run a hydro system in his loft, allegedly...

    flat roof commercial mounting.

    Thanks for the ideas, interesting first site visit today, the flat roof is neither flat nor flat. The ridge is running N-S so we have two very low angled E/W inclines. Roof is sheet metal sandwich with fiberglass infill and standing ridges around 50mm high. Ideally we're after zero penetration...

    flat roof commercial mounting.

    We're quoting on our first flat roof commercial system, looking for recommendations as to the simplest install, least ballast, best looking etc... Not yet come across any that make you think 'wow that's the best!'

    What is the definitive Immersion Controller?

    I've been told the new immersun is not going to be burst fire or phase angle controlled so should eliminate flicker and DNO issues. Also told it would be released in June... 2013 that is...

    What is the definitive Immersion Controller?

    We started out on the Wooldridge as it was the first proportional controller to market, moved to the Immersun when it came out as it was a bit prettier and programmable. I am now looking at the Marlec iBoost given Immersuns wireless version still hasn't been launched, anyone got any feedback...

    EPC & Barns Help Please

    We've been through this recently also. Be aware that there is a difference between a building that is 'exempt' and one that an EPC cannot be applied to. A building that is technically exempt might be able to technically have an EPC carried out, ie has walls roof heating/cooling. Wheras a...

    Sunny Beam - Using with multiple inverters

    Thanks for the input chaps and welcome to the forum Mark. We've resolved it, the netid needs to be set to the same number on both inverters . The reason we had problems was because we neglected to reboot the inverter to reset the net id properly. SMA UKs advisor either misunderstood (his...

    Sunny Beam - Using with multiple inverters

    Hi Guys, We've just installed our first extension to a system so we now have 2 SMA inverters with Bluetooth and the original sunny beam. We'd assumed that the display would show both inverters and allow access to each set of data. Upon commissioning of the second system we found that the...

    Are these super efficient panels?

    If you wire the panels in series (connected to each other) the voltage will double but the current will be the same (7A) leaving you within your fuse rating.

    Rooftop cable management

    Not a massive amount of cable, 15 strings at peak so 30 cables. The long term durability concerns me, would you go for stainless tray? There appears to be a heavy duty PVC trunking or cable tray that i am trying to get some details on, used by utility companies i'm told and is UV stable and...

    Rooftop cable management

    We're looking at using Renusols Metasole system on a commercial trap roof shortly, it will be our first with this system. It has no rails though so nothing to run the cables along and they dont seem to have a system other than cableties down the edge of the panels on plastic clips. I'm ok with...

    Post July 1st.

    We're beginning to quote on jobs that will likely not happen untill after the cut for a variety of reasons but we have no data on the new rates yet. We will no doubt be in breach of our MCS requirements by quoting based on the current rate or any assumed rate. Any cosy council jobs going?

    Bargain SMA Sunny Boy 3000TL on ebay

    You're correct of course. But i'm going to throw some points out there conflictingly both as an MCS installer (that isn't buying it to pass on to customers, knowingly or not) and someone who'd like to see the seller get something near what he paid for it. 1. MCS doesn't cover used equipment...
