Lewington Solar Get Solar – Leicestershire, Leicester, Northampton
Lewington Solar after advertising and promoting the benefits of solar pv in Leicester, leicestershire, Northampton & Northamptonshire have had solar pv put on Lewington Solar’s roof! The 3.99kWp system will generate over £36,000 in 25 years and help keep the companies carbon footprint to a minimum, the system was designed and installed by our own solar enginneers and it also acts as a viewing point for all customers willing to see how they look on our roof and the effects within the unit itself. We really do see the financial benefits of solar PV and that it isnt just a fad it is truly a great financial oppotunity. These are the figures for our solar panels:
Example 2 – Large solar PV installation
Solar system size = 3.64 kWp (x17 panels)
Total estimated cost, including VAT @5% = £13,440.00
Annual solar electricity generation = 2,960 kWh
Annual income from Feed-in Tariff = £1,282.00
Annual income from electricity export = £46.00
Annual fuel bill saving = £185.00
Total annual income and savings = £1,513.00
Lifetime benefit over 25 years = £37,814
If you would like to come see the solar pv panels then you are welcome to view at any time, however if you would like to have a close up view then please contact the office on

Solar Leicester – Solar PV Installers
www.lewington-solar.co.uk/solar-p-v
The rising interest in Solar PV in Leicester is growing rapidly. Lewington Solar has seen a massive increase in quoting and acceptances in the past 6 months that ever before in the Leicester Solar market!
We put this down to two main reasons:
- People are waking up to the real benefits of solar PV, at first it does sound “too good to be true” and sounds like salesmen cackle however with the government struggling to meet renewable energy targets they are really pushing Solar PV and the incentives are massive. Read More here…..
- Reassurance, the MCS acreditation scheme allows consumers to be GUARANTEED the government income, installers without MCS accreditation WILL NOT be able to grant the customer with government income. Also the REAL scheme means that consumers cant be sold misinformation by installers and the REAL scheme does constant checks on all its members to make sure the data they present are up-to-date and factually correct
Lewington Solar are memebers of both schemes.

Gas Price Increase Solution
Gas prices have been the talk of the papers over the past couple of weeks and never has there been a better time to beat the gas price rise by getting a new energy efficient boiler OR go green with Lewington Solar and cut your bills with Solar Thermal.
As the Guardian has reported, the average fuel bill will now rise from £1096 to £1288 a year!
A staggering figure in the long term as it means that in just 6 years time you will be £1152 worse off than if gas prices hadn’t change.
That could go to a new boiler or new solar thermal system instead of the pockets of gas providers.

Climate Change Levy (CCL)
The rates for Climate Change Levy (CCL) have increased as of 1st April 2011. CCL usually increases in line with inflation however for the government to reach their optimistic targets they have increased outline of inflation. CCL is a tax on energy used by business and other organisations.
The rates use to stand as:
Gas – 0.164p p/kWh
Electricity – 0.470p p/kWh
Now they have increased to
Gas – 0.169p p/kWh
Electricity – 0.485p p/kWh
This increase your annual costs by as much as £200 a year.
Why would you want to spend an extra £200 a year when, with solar PV or other alternatives, you can earn on average £2200 a year!
This really is an amazing investment opportunity that is guaranteed by the government for 25 years AND is in line with inflation.
