Welcome to Sims Solar, an independent company specialising in the design,
supply, installation and maintenance of solar photovoltaic
(PV) and solar thermal systems.
As an MCS accredited installer under the Government's
Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS), installations completed by Sims Solar
qualify for the Feed in Tariff (FiT).
Sims Solar specialises in the supply and installation of:
- Solar photovoltaic (PV) systems: PV systems comprise
panels incorporating silicon wafers that generate DC electricity when exposed to
sunlight. The DC electricity is converted through an inverter to AC electricity
for use at the point of generation or exported to the National Grid. Under the Government's
FiT scheme, an income
can be earned from the electricity generated.
The Government has made significant changes to the scheme rules, more information
can be found within the
Solar Photovoltaics pages.
- Solar thermal systems: Solar thermal systems use sunlight
to heat water. The systems typically comprise roof mounted collectors that harness
the sun's energy and transfer it to a hot water storage cylinder. Under the Government's
proposed
Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) to be launched later in 2012, an income can
be earned for the hot water produced.
