Announcement "later today!"

[solarsavings]

Anyone who believes there is a future for this industry is smoking something I haven't for thirty years (for the industry) (for the spliff) that should have been

 

[SRE]

So, to try and draw some conlusions about the whole EPC carry on (not that any of our houses will achieve that!) has anyone worked out how we know what rating the house is at survey without doing the EPC?

Chris - hate to put even more of a damper on it but you can't do your own EPC's you'll need someone to do them for you.

Is anyone finding any positives we can hang on to?

Sorry if this has already been asked - but is the EPC done after the installation taking into account the PV? or is a two part process? EPC first to determine the rating, then add PV to bump up into band D, that another cert.

Solar pv only adds two or three points anyway !!!!

 

[SRE]

How many installations is 150-200mw and how does that compare with November last year?

 

[trevor79]

One serious effect of DECC's price cutting will be quality systems, fitted to high standards will be not economic to do!

I don't see all the people involved in a PV job taking a 50% cut in wages along with further cuts going forward.

Our industry being treated like this is beyond a joke:joker:

Thanks to everyone for the info... more straightforward then anything on the DECC website....

[SolarCity]

Same old contempt for industry by the Tories. I wonder how many Tory MPs are actually pyschopaths? (I'm not joking either)

 

[finchy]

now thats daft - I can see these independants EPC people being King pin and talking our customers into another installer and getting a nice kick back !

 

[SolarCity]

There was definitely a sharp intake of breath from me when I heard the news.... so that my corollary shriek of "DESPAIR" had more chance of being heard by my neighbours.

Just like there would be a sharp drawing back of my right foot if I ever met Mr Barker.... just before I kick his jaw bone clean off.

[SRE]

I noticed that he only retweets comments from companies sucking up to him. Not the unbiased approach that we're used to from the government :13:

 

[solarsavings]

So those with social housing contracts are likely to be still whistling long after we cant hear the tune. I wonder if they're the ones doing the sucking......................up. Bloody gerbil keepers
