Why buy Solar ??
10 GOOD reasons why it’s now time for Solar Panels
1. It’s not about impressing your neighbours. However, it doesn’t hurt to be the first!
You don’t have to be mental to be environmental, but you will definitely beam, showing your neighbours you are SMART and GREEN.
2. Increase your house price, adding solar to your home, is the equivalent of adding a conservatory, estate agencies are estimating 10-15% to homes with solar than there neighbours.
3. Selling your property, in a century with ‘fuel poverty’, homes with solar already installed will be snapped up, quicker, than those without.
4. Britain’s energy crisis, did you know, 80% of British electric and gas supplies will have to come from Russia, leaving the biggest national security threat since the cold war. Our politicians will have no choice but to give in to Russia’s demands this century.
5. Tony Blair and now Gordon Brown has admitted a massive energy gap coming, as our own Gas supplies run out, and we become more and more dependent on Russia, but the nuclear dream, means we cannot dispose of last century’s waste, let alone this century’s nuclear waste. ‘Fuel Poverty’ will be a reality for rich and poor.
6. Why not wind, in a nutshell, you have a guaranteed set amount of daylight hours per year, to harness solar, but winds are far more hit and miss.
7. The technology, or solar technologies has improved vastly over the last 10 years, especially the affordable SMART award winning hot water solar panel, with greater and greater efficiency.
8. Rising energy pricing, may I quote “British Gas Managing Director – Mark Clare, said “the industry had no choice but to pass on the large increase in wholesale gas prices to the consumer”. Mr Clare said “The wholesale price forecasts for 2006 are something like 50 percent higher than a few months ago. FORWARD MARKET PRICES ARE PRETTY UGLY FOR EARLY NEXT YEAR AND BEYOND”. “All suppliers are going to have to put prices up in 2006, that’s inevitable”. He added “higher gas prices means higher electricity prices too, because Gas fuels 40 percent of the UK’s power stations”.
Energy price fixing by energy companies – Read the small print, price fixing is subject to governmental price changes, here or abroad, so if Russia decides to up its price, up goes your price, fixed or not.
9. British climate change, we have all felt it get warmer and dryer, so if predictions are correct, over the coming years, you will be seeing a lot of the sunshine.
10. Global warming, your children and grandchildren, need we say anymore.
Did we mention it saves you money?
