Photovoltaic (PV) Solar

PV Solar has been used for some time now in the UK and it can be a perfect option to incorporate with an Air Source Heat Pump, Hybrid Air Source Heat Pump, or even as a standalone product. This type of system uses sunlight and changes it into electricity. The way this happens is by the sunlight being caught by the PV Panels and then converted into electricity by an inverter which is installed in your home. This electricity can then be used within your home to power multiple appliances, including your Air Source Heat Pump. The electricity can also be stored in a battery for use later on when the sun is not topping up your system.

Whilst some people are under the impression that you need clear sky and the sun in direct contact with PV panels, this is simply not the case. A PV system works even through the clouds so you will be generating electricity still. However it is worth noting that the more sunshine that is available the more energy you are going to generate.

The combination of PV Solar and an Air Source Heat Pump means an even greater move to becoming carbon neutral, thus also increasing your COP from 3-1 This type of system is fantastic for any home owner that is looking to take renewable technology to the next level, and in turn reap the rewards of lower energy bills and also having peace of mind that they are doing their part for the environment. This type of setup could be combined with appropriately sized radiators, or underfloor heating.
