Support for solar panels
We will investigate how we may support the installation of solar panels in our neighbourhood.
- Solar panels require initial investment but can provide free solar energy for up to 25 years
- As well as reducing energy bills, they can also provide income when we sell unused energy to the National Grid via our regular supplier
- Digital mapping of roofs in our neighbourhood can indicate where solar panels may be most efficient. This information may also be linked to finding out which buildings would benefit from the installation of solar panels because they have high energy use (see also Thermal Imaging Detector)
- Organising the installation of panels on several buildings at once may also help reduce the costs through bulk purchasing
