Afternoon all
We have a couple of damaged Day4Energy 240w modules to replace and so far as I can tell this company no-longer exists. Well not in the same form as it did a few years ago anyway.
A new company has taken up the technology but are not producing these panels. They have suggested...
Just had a tweet back from Ofgem to say that they intend to release their updated FIT guidance next week.
Only 3 weeks after the scheme restarted / 7 weeks after the previous scheme closed.
OFGEM have just published their most recent report:
https://www.ofgem.gov.uk/ofgem-publications/91945/feed-intarifffitannualreport20132014.pdf
In contrast to previous reports this one actually contains some interesting information.
Has anybody submitted ROOFIT accreditation's, Their process is extremely slow. We commissioned two systems at the end of June , paperwork was sent in to them and OFGEM want readings from 5th Sept. That is 2 months loss of generation.
Received email from customer stating that OFGEM have rejected my EPC from last July (they have had two payments already) due to the Non Building Declaration having incorrect wording. They have threatened to take away higher rate and in place give lower rate. THATS NOT FAIR.:sad_smile:

Had an interesting session today with the above, ofgem ENA and the Senior network planners or those in charge of Distributed Generation (DG) from WPD, Scottish Power, SSE, UKPowerNetworks and Northern Powergrid
They all know that they have had a bad reputation for dealing with Distributed...
I have just had a call from our EPC assessor who has had notification from his accrediting body that they are unable to accept the MCS cert as proof of size of installation (in the case of EPC being done after the install because without it the house would not get a D) because it shows the...
I've always stayed away from any of this sort of stuff but I have a very insistent customer. He says he will disconnect the other 4 panels if his fit application is not accepted (yeah right!). He basically has room for 5kw but obviously wants the 16p rate (install in August). Argument is that...
We have a commercial customer inquiry for a 10kW PV system and a Biomass boiler install. There is a possibility that their current facility will be closed down and a new building will be built 100 metres away. The customer is asking if they have the PV and Biomass installed now and then in a...
From page 47 of the Ofgem Guidance for renewable installations (Version 3)
"All applications for accreditation of new solar PV installations with an eligibility date on or after 1 April 2012, need to be accompanied by a copy of this document......"
Just had British Gas let us know of this new...
A while ago I had a spreadsheet which showed every MCS installation in the UK and who did it, where is that damned thing, I'd like to see how I compare to my local competitors but I can't find it.
Hi all,
I've had a couple of enquiries lately from clients who have been (somewhat surprisingly) informed by their DNO that the generation meter is not Ofgem approved. Why, all of a sudden, are DNO's deciding that MID approval is not adequate/accepted? Don't they understand the history/nature...
Hi everyone
I have fitted possibly 60 sub wylex D/B's with the Inepro meter built in the D/B. We installed one last week and Eon have refused the application because they are saying we can't them. I haven't had any problems before. I can not get in contact of Eon as they are now closed, Has...
