Whether you are a developer or an existing landlord, we have a green energy solution that can benefit you.
Solar PV panels and wind turbines generate free electricity which can cut electricity bills for your tenants and provide a profitable income via the Feed In Tariffs (FIT's), for you. This income is fixed and guaranteed by the government for 20 - 25 years & what's more it is index linked so it will rise with inflation.
The return from solar PV can be up to 10% per annum (income + savings). And with the introduction of the Renewable Heat Incentive, excellent returns can be made from solar thermal systems and air & ground source heat pumps.
For developers and landlords, renewable energy installed in a property can make it more desirable as potential buyers or tenants will receive free energy and therefore dramatically reduced electricity bills (if any at all!). This naturally commands a premium rent or sale price.
The 25 year income stream from the Feed In Tariffs (FIT's) can either be taken by the developer or landlord or passed onto the buyer or tenant as an added incentive. This offers a superb return to the developer or landlord in times of uncertainty in the housing markets.
We offer a free consultation service during which we will identify all of the available technologies that are suitable for your site and put together a funding plan for you. We will also assist you every step of the way throughout any grant or carbon trust loan application processes.
There follows a case study for a Solar PV investment of £10,000 which will allow you to see the potential returns on investment in terms of finance and carbon saving :
Case Study : What could I receive for a £10,000 investment in solar PV?
An investment of £10,000 could offer you an average annual return of approximately £900 to £1,000 per annum for 25 years (this return is made up of income from the FIT's and estimated electricity savings).
This represents a total return of approximately 9-10% per year and a total income over 25 years of £22,500 - £25,000 (This income is tax free if you are a domestic customer & even better if you pay a higher rate of tax).
This return will rise further in value if you compare it to having money sitting in a bank account as it is index linked, so will rise with inflation.
The carbon saving on this investment would be approximately 28 tonnes over 25 years.
The figures quoted above are for illustration only and are based on various assumptions relating to the siting of the panels and energy prices/consumption. A quotation can be tailored to your exact circumstances on request.
