The table below shows our guideline pricing structure for an MCS compliant installation
| Technical & Performance | Cost | Annual Benefits and Savings | CO2 Benefits | |||||
| Size kWp | Area m2 | Generation kWh | ex VAT | Feed In Tariff Revenue | Import Savings | Total Saving | Annual Return | CO2 Saving tonnes |
| 4 | 28 | 3,400 | £9,348 | £1,301 | £170 | £1,471 | 9% | 1.9 |
| 10 | 70 | 8,500 | £22,322 | £2,788 | £425 | £3,213 | 9% | 4.8 |
| 25 | 175 | 21,250 | £49,190 | £6,971 | £1,063 | £8,034 | 10% | 12.7 |
| 50 | 350 | 42,500 | £88,223 | £13,941 | £2,125 | £16,066 | 10% | 24.1 |
Notes:
For installations above 3.7 kWp the Network Operator reserves the right to ask for additional protection equipment and witness test the commissioning. This may add additional cost.
Tax Benefits are calculated by tax exempt gross differential for FIT and export payments, and gross tax saving offsetting of imported energy saving
Prices inlcude a sum for a basic scaffolding deck as part of installation, this is subject ot survey.
Generaly It is assumed 50% of energy is exported and 50% used on site. This is an assumption, and may vary in reality.
The equipment and installation must be undertaken by a certified manufacturer/installer. Ardenham Energy holds MCS certification, and uses MCS approved technology
Solar PV Energy yields assume a good location for solar i.e. south facing with minimal obstruction and 30 degree off horizontal pitch.
Solar PV Generation base line is 850 kWh/kWp optimal generation, which is adjusted to take into account shading, orientation and angle in the calculation. In parts of southern and western England this may be exceeded
Wind Turbine locations are assumed to have aqnd average wind speed of 5 m/s at hub height, and are 100% turbulence free
Annual cost saving is based on typical residential electricity and gas prices. These may change in future,
Bespoke solutions incorporating solar roof tiles and in roof systems can be provided. The prices here do not provide this.
Carbon saving figures based on standard car achieving 35mpg.
Prices are based on residential VAT rates of 5%.
Ardenham Energy are not IFAs
The outputs assume that the grid voltage is always within tolerance.
The followingf table outlines the typical variance from optimal 30 degrees south facing. This percentages should be used to estimate outputs on non ideal orientations, as a multiple of the outputs outlined above. It is unlikely we would recommend undertaking a project with orientations further north than due east or west.
