Solar photovoltaic (PV) systems convert light into electrical power using a thin layer of semi conducting materal encased between sheets of glass or plastic. PV can easily be incorporated into most buildings either integrated into a new roof or bolted on to an existing one and require very little maintenance.

Solar PV panels can be used independently or they can be connected to the national grid. If connected to the grid you can sell back any surplus electricity.

Cost: A typical sized Solar PV array will cost around £7,500 to £13,000 and a 2.5kWp system could generate approx £950 a year in Feed in Tariff payments and also save the average domestic household around £230 per year.

Solar Thermal Hot water systems can usually provide up to 70% of your annual hot water needs. A liquid inside the solar panels (collectors) absorb solar radiation and the heat is then transferred through pipes to a hot water cylinder where the hot water is then stored ready for use. Your existing boiler / fuel will top up the heat on occasions when there is not enough solar radiation to heat the water sufficiently.

There are 2 main types of solar collector:

• Flat Plate
  glazed, flat dark surfaced absorber plate which absorbs the solar energy. Fluid is circulated through the tubing and heated by the sun.
• Evacuated Tubes
  are parallel row of transparent glass tubes containing an absorber insulated by a partial vacuum. They can be more effective but also more expensive to install.

You will probably also need a new cylinder in which to store the hot water.

Cost: A typical domestic system will cost between £4,000-£5,000.

Air Source Heat pumps use similar technology to that employed in domestic refrigerators or freezers, but in reverse. An air source heat pump works by extracting low-grade heat from the air outside but where a refrigerator rejects heat from the contents to keep it cool, a heat pump will use it to heat water and provide heating.

Heat pumps work best with slow response, low temperature heating such as underfloor heating or oversized radiators.

Heat pumps do need electricity to run but they use less electrical energy than other heating systems and they can be combined with a PV system that will generate the electricity to run the system.

Cost: A typical domestic system costs from £6,000 - £9,000.
