With rising energy bills and concerns about energy security, it makes perfect sense think about generating your own low cost, low carbon energy and heat from the sun this summer.

Why consider solar power?

Whether it’s generating electricity with solar photovoltaics (PV), or heat from for solar thermal panels, harnessing solar energy isn’t suitable for every business. If you don’t have space for a ground-mounted array, or your roof faces north, chances are you would be better looking at other renewable energy technologies

But, for many businesses, rising energy costs, and reduced installation costs, mean the business case for solar stacks up better than ever.

Not to mention the unsecured, interest free loans currently available the Scottish Government that can help small and medium sized enterprises fund solar thermal projects.
