Having already achieved MCS status for Solar Photovoltaic installations with BRE in 2009, we decided to switch to ELECSA to provide our assessments for 2010, which means we can continue to provide quality Solar PV installations to customers.

The assessment procedure assesses our quality management systems, installation standards and personnel training which ensures that all installations carried out by us will be eligible for the Clean Energy Cashback Scheme (also known as Feed-in tariff scheme) and the forthcoming Renewable Heat Incentive expected to be launched in April 2011.

The Solar PV and Solar Thermal accreditations join our existing ELECSA Microgeneration Certification Scheme accreditation for Heat Pumps. Karen Jones, Managing Director of Access Renewables comments “The MCS scheme is a vital part of installing renewables in the UK and so we are delighted to be awarded accreditation for a further 12 months. It demonstrates our commitment to a high level of care, quality and satisfaction”.

In addition to the MCS accredition, the company has also recently undergone a routine audit by the Renewable Energy Association’s REAL Assurance Scheme which audits the compnies activities in Sales and Marketing.
