If you are not rebuilding or re-roofing your home then we would recommend a retrofit system, a fully installed bolt-on system is a hassle free, cost effective solar solution.

The majority of domestic installations are retrofit, (this is where the panel sits on top of the existing roof.)

With our years of experience and expertise in the domestic market Solarworld is not tied in to using one particular product, we use the best quality and most efficient modules in the market place. At present the most efficient module is manufactured by Sanyo and each module has an output of 215watt, this is a Hybrid panel ('Hybrid' PV combines both monocrystalline and thin-film silicon to produce cells with the best features of both technologies). The main reason for Solarworld using this module is because of the size and the output it can produce, meaning we can get larger more powerful systems up on a smaller area of roof, increasing the size of he grant you could be eligible for. Not only can you get more modules up on to your roof but this Hybrid panel is the only one that for every 1kWp you put up you are expected to produce at least 900 electrical units - kilowatt hours - every year, where other modules (Polycrystalline, Monocrystalline) will only produce 750 electrical units - kilowatt hours - every year per 1kWp.

This is the most cost effective solar solution.
