http://solarpoweruk.blogspot.com/Householders should ignore the relative lack of sunshine in the UK and install solar panels as part of a home improvement project, an expert has said.
Ian Reilly, business development manager at Beyond Building Solar, said many people in Britain think this type of energy generation will not work in the UK because of the climate.
However, this view is mistaken, Mr Reilly commented, as solar power does not rely on cloudless, sunshine-filled days to work efficiently.
"It can be a reflected light coming through from cloud cover as well and it will still operate to a certain extent on those days," he added.
Adding this type of environmentally-friendly device to a property can provide a very good return on an initial investment, the expert concluded.
The Feed-in Tariffs scheme, launched by the Labour government in April 2010, encourages domestic renewable energy installation in homes across the UK by providing financial incentives for doing so.
