What Are The New Feed-in Tariff Rates From August 2012

From the 1st August the Feed-in Tariff rates for Solar PV have been reduce to reflect the lower cost of the equipment.

We are able to offer our clients great rates of return on their Solar PV installations whilst still using high quality materials from reputable manufacturers.  If you are looking for a quality installation you should make sure your installer is using high quality products, we have heard of some installers using cheap isolators and other electrical equipment  to reduce their installation costs but there have now been several instances where isolators have short circuited and caught fire so buyer beware!  At EnergyMyWay we only use high quality electrical and PV equipment.
