GreenBuildEnergy Latest News

FIT (Feed In Tariffs) launched today-contact GreenBuildEnergy for your  MCS PV installations!

GreenBuildEnergy helps you get a 'greener' return on your investment!

Great News FIT (Feed In Tariffs) Launched today!!

Let’s start with the basics...

Solar PV system generates ‘green’ electricity. This power can be used
to drive anything from an appliance to a light bulb that is usually powered by the
mains electrical supply.
Generating your own power enables you to not only reduce your carbon emissions, You can also lower your annual electricity bills, as you will inevitably use less power from the National Grid.

Feed-in tariffs are designed to make you go green...
The Government’s new ‘Generation’ Feed-in Tariffs (FIT), part of the Renewable Heat Incentive Scheme, are an encouragement for people to switch to renewable technologies in the home, helping the UK to lessen its carbon footprint and meet the 2020 emissions target.

The scheme will pay you for every unit of electricity you generate with renewable technologies like Solar PV, whether it is used in the home or not (exported).

Launched today on 1st April 2010 and guaranteed for 25 years, this new scheme, results in a shorter payback for Solar PV systems, making them an extremely attractive green option for any home. Looking more closely at this, when
the capital cost of the system is paid for, everything you generate and receive as pay-back, is income!

PV systems registering with the scheme from 1st April 2010 to 31st March 2011 will benefit as follows:

Any system up to 4kW on a new build = 36.1p per kW pay-back

Any system up to 4kW on an existing property (retrofitted) = 41.3p per kW pay-back

Any system 4-10kW new build or retrofitted = 36.1p per kW pay-back

Any system 10-100kW new build or retrofitted = 31.4p per kW pay-back

If you normally pay 12p per kWh for your electricity, you would effectively get both the PV generated power consumed for free and the FIT.

So on a retrofit system up to 4kW this would mean 12p + 41.3p = 53.3p per kWh saving!


So many facts and Figures ! Now lets do the maths for a typical 3-5 bedroom detached house!

Average electricity cost per year: 3300kWh x 12p per kWh = £396.00
Average cost of purchasing and installing an on-roof 1.8kW
Solar PV System (10 modules): = £9,900.00
Approximate power generated per year
by the our Solar PV System: = 1693kWh
Annual income from the
Solar PV System: 1693kWh x 53.3p = £902.37
Approximate power generated over
25-years by the Solar PV System: 42,325kWh x 53.3p = £22,559.23
Typical payback time of £9900.00
Solar PV System: £902.37 = 11 Years
Return on investment (ROI) over 25-years: Assuming no inflation = £12,659.25

A modest 2% inflation rate applied annually for 25-years
to the income generated, increases the ROI to: = £19,003.25
In this calculation payback will be reduced to: = 10 years
