Solar panels
talk on photovoltaics in the home will help householders answer that question.
HadLOW CARBON Community
and Transition Tunbridge Wells are holding meetings in Hadlow and Tunbridge
Wells to give independent advice for homeowners considering installing solar PV
panels.
The
talks, by independent expert Ian Smith, will discuss what equipment is
involved, which houses are suitable, how the feed-in tariff subsidy works, what
the economics look like – how soon your investment might be covered, and how to
choose an installer. Mr Smith will also look at the offers by companies of
"free electricity" in return for renting your roof to install PV panels.
The talks will take place
on:
Date: Saturday
12 November
Times: 10am
and 11.30am
Venue: Old
School Hall, Hadlow, TN11 0EH
Date: Saturday
26 November
Times: 10am
and 11.30am
Venue: King
Charles Church Hall, 3 Warwick Park, Tunbridge Wells, TN2 5TA
Each talk will last for
approximately 40 minutes and be followed by questions.

Why not come along - your prejudices may change?
PV panels are usually guaranteed for 20-25 years. See more here http://tinyurl.com/6eclh6b or here http://tinyurl.com/5t5dbwo
Inverters can fail earlier and usually carry a guarantee of 10 years, which is why it is important to get independant advice about the correct one for your system.

ReportThese groups are all eco fascist groups and are no way independent.
Before signing anything make sure you do your research and base yopur calculations on a realistic PV lifespan of only 10 years .
