Community buildings offer a unique chance to showcase your environmental concerns and offer the chance to develop a small scale generating system that pays handsome dividends. Large roofs allow multi panel arrays impossible in domestic terms which benefit from decreasing installation costs as system sizes increase. After all, you only need one set of scaffolding whether your putting up 20 panels or 200.
Show them you care
The roofs we covered in PV panels for Watford Boy's Grammar School in October 2011 is not only a very public demonstration of their committment, it also provides them with income and savings of around £18,000 a year. Unlike houses, most of the power will be used during the day, which is precisely when it is being generated. And the savings from reducing the energy you import are greater than the income you gain by exporting.
Find out how we can help you
If you're investigating economy or environmental programs for your local community building, give us a call today. We're already in discussions with Parish Councils, Churches and sports clubs and would be delighted to explain how solar thermal and photovoltaic systems could work for you. We can give you the costs, expected power outputs, savings and income for a variety of systems and equip you with the information you need to convince your colleagues.
