Solar Power

Solar energy can be captured by solar panels. There are 2 main types of solar panels which uses complete different technologies to make use of the energy from the sun:

Solar Water Heating collectors: These panels absorbs the energy from the sun and transfer it to heat water.
Photovoltaic or solar electric panels: These panels transform the solar radiation directly into electricity.

Solar water heating
Solar Power Solar water heating systems are one of the most popular forms of solar energy used. The system is connected to the hot water system. Solar water heating systems can provide over half of a household's hot water requirements over the year. There are 2 types of solar water heating collector: flat plate and evacuated tubes.

Photovoltaic (Solar Electric)
Photovoltaic (PV) or solar electric can offer us all the ability to generate electricity in a clean, quiet and renewable way. The variety of applications for solar electric are numerous. Photovoltaic (PV) cells are used in simple applications e.g. calculators and watches and also for domestic and larger applications. Large PV systems can be integrated into buildings to generate electricity for export to the National grid.

Wind Power

People have used the power of the wind for many years to produce mechanical power for milling grain and pumping water. In recent times wind turbine technology has enabled us to harness wind to generate electricity. The electricity is then exported either to the grid for use locally or to power a stand alone application.

This renewable source of energy has great potential in both onshore and offshore wind farms, or even in your own backyard! Wind power is one of the cleanest and safest of all the renewable commercial methods of generating electricity.

Wind power produces no pollutants or emissions during operation. A typical wind turbine for electrical generation will repay the energy used in its manufacture in the first 6-9 months of its operation.
