9 THE BENEFITS OF SOLAR Sunshine is free so, once you ve installed a solar power system, you can generate your own free electricity. This means you can: Cut your electricity bills: The electricity your Solar Panels produce can power your home, significantly reducing the amount of electricity you ll need to buy during the day. Get paid for the power you produce: The system owner is paid a subsidy for producing electricity. No matter whether you use the electricity you generate or not, these Feed In Tariffs (FITs) reward you for generating carbon free renewable energy. Sell your electricity back to the National Grid: If your system is producing more electricity than you need at any given time, then the surplus electricity flows back into the grid; for a further payment your export tariff. Cut your carbon footprint: Solar electricity is incredibly environmentally friendly. It s completely renewable and doesn t release any Carbon Dioxide (CO2) or other pollutants. A typical home Solar PV system could save over a tonne of CO2 per year. Sunlight Solar Panels Electricity used in your home Electricity Grid 1. Get paid for every unit of electricity you produce, whether you use it in your home or not. 2. Use your free electricity to power your home. TOTAL GENERATION 3. IMPORT 4. Get paid extra for the electricity you don t use. EXPORT Import from the grid any extra electricity that you need, just like you do now. 9

These technologies can help heat the water storage heater or under floor heating. This means that you get even more value from your investment. 10

11 CASE STUDY PEMBROKESHIRE AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY Pembrokeshire Agricultural Society were impressed by the professional approach of the Silverstone Green Energy team. Their ability to provide a sophisticated technical solution enabled the society to specify a 50kWp system which will deliver a rapid return on investment and continue to perform in the long term. Working closely with us at all stages, the installation was completed quickly, with minimum disruption and in full compliance with health & safety regulations. Post installation, the system has proved trouble free and we received full support to ensure contracts for supply, feed in tariff and warranty documents were in place. We would not hesitate to recommend Silverstone Green Energy to anyone considering a large scale roof top installation. Alex Bruce CEO of Pembrokeshire Agricultural Society GRAVELLS OF KIDWELLY Gravells were very pleased with the work performed by Silverstone regarding the installation of 50kw PV system at Gravells Service Centre in Kidwelly.
