3.43 kW PV Installation underway
Following a thorough assessment from the certification body NICEIC, HavMain has obtained Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS) accreditation. This allows HavMain to undertake the supply, design, installation, set-to-work and commissioning of Solar PV systems.
The Government defines Microgeneration as the production of heat and/or electricity on a small-scale from a low carbon source. Solar Photovoltaic (PV) systems can contribute to helping the UK deliver its share of the EU target for 20% of energy from renewable sources by 2020. Solar PV cells are made from layers of semi-conducting material, usually silicon, so when light shines on the cell it creates an electric field across the layers and converts sunlight into electricity.
As a certified MCS installer in the Torbay area, we comply with the REAL (Renewable Energy Assurance Ltd) Assurance Scheme. This scheme guarantees that HavMain provide a high quality experience for consumers wishing to buy or lease small generation units for their home, community building or small business, as it is backed by the Office of Fair Trading (OFT). Solar PV installations have the potential to reduce consumer energy bills, reduce the impact on the environment and can give the consumer the ability to sell the electricity they make back to the grid through the Government’s Feed-In Tariff scheme (FITs). To qualify for FITs, the system must be installed by an MCS accredited company such as HavMain.
