Solar Energy Campaign To Reduce Energy Bills

Construction News Image
Green Home Systems has partnered with STV to launch a national solar energy campaign and raise awareness of how to reduce domestic energy bills.

The new TV campaign will broadcast for three months and help to generate awareness of how solar panels can help reduce domestic energy bills while lowering our carbon footprints. With the cost of living at an all-time high and with greater levels of fuel poverty than ever before, it is vital that households find new ways to reduce costs.

Solar PV systems work by capturing the sun's energy and converting it into electricity that can be used throughout the home, which works well even on cloudy days. With a solar battery included as part of the system, the savings can be maximised as energy is stored during the day for later use. Solar PV is very environmentally friendly to operate because it uses a sustainable energy source which also maximises the cost-saving benefits.
