The availability of Solar modules throughout the UK and Europe is being disrupted as a result of changes to Feed-in tariffs in other European countries, resulting in a spike in demand which has depleted UK stocks of a wide number of modules.
As a major installer of solar photovoltaic systems in the UK, Access Renewables are working with key suppliers to ensure the disruption is minimal during the shortage period, which is expected to return to normal levels in January.
However, we are urging customers who are looking to install systems between now and April 2010 – in particular those who may be eligible for grant funding from The Low Carbon Buildings Programme – to contact us to plan as far in advance as possible, to ensure that we can allocate sufficient levels of stock.
In April 2010, homeowners will no longer be able to receive the £2000-£2500 grant available to install Solar Photovoltaic systems in their homes as a result of the government’s Clean Energy Cashback scheme coming into force, which is expecting to reward homeowners with between 36.5 and 46.5p for each unit they generate. For systems installed now, and before April 2010, customers will be able to benefit from both schemes.
For public-sector clients, including schools, housing associations, charities, local authorities and government departments a grant of 50% may still be available if applications are made without delay. Again, these clients will also be eligible for the Clean Energy Cashback scheme starting in April 2010. All systems which are funded by The Low Carbon Buildings Programme must be installed by the end of March 2010.
In repsonse to the stock shortages and changes to funding schemes, Access Renewables have launched a new offer for Homeowners wishing to benefit from both schemes, and are offering high quality systems at market-leading prices by booking installations in advance. We’ve also reduced the deposit required from customers on these very special deals to just £250 rather than the standard rates of between 10% and 25%.
