I've got an email from delighted people from Sheralds Croft in Thriplow that their request to me to help get solar panels for their next door neighbour's roof has been successful. Originally their apple tree blocked out the light but since the tree was removed all is well.
These are some of five hundred South Cambs District Council council houses having solar photo-voltaic (PV) panels installed. The cost of the panels and installation work is being met by Savills Solar, and properties have been chosen following a survey last year which identified those roofs capable of producing the most electricity. This low-carbon renewable energy is available to tenants free of charge during daylight hours, and it is reckoned this will save about £150 per year in electricity bills. People in Thriplow told me the installation went very well.
Any surplus energy is sold to the national grid which also helps to pay back costs.
