Commercial use of Solar Energy

'True Energy' is focused on the supply of Solar Photovoltaic panels for installation where it represents a practical benefit to the user, invariably being a more cost effective solution than using mains electricity or other solutions.

Eelctricity is so fundamental to the way that we run our lives and businesses that when there is a power cut, everything stops!

Amazon.com would expect to lose $1M per minute if there was a power failure and its website ordering system failed.

Google, apart from having multiple server sites, has also invested heavily in solar power as both an alternative and renewable source of power.

Solar photovoltaic systems have a reputation for expense. But now with less justification as the years pass and prices fall. A solar PV system can be installed in place of other cladding, the savings associated with not using traditional cladding can be taken from the capital cost of the Solar PV.

Solar PV is invariably installed in close proximity to the point of use thus avoiding the installation costs of extensive grid connections and the ongoing power losses.

Solar PV has virtually no maintenance requirements, no moving parts and comes with extensive testing - snow, wind, hail, temperature variations - prior to reaching the market.

Once installed, the energy from Solar PV is free!

The installation of Solar PV shows a commitment to the environment and energy responsibility that works its way down through the organisation. Staff are more likely to switch off lights, PCs, copiers etc. Installing PV can be the 1st clear step in developing a real energy conservation strategy in a company.

Renewable energy investments can attract significant grants, have an ongoing benefit in generating ROCs (Renewable Energy Certificates) and the capital cost is offset by Enhanced Capital Allowances.
