Your Questions Answered

What is a Solar PV system?2024-11-26T00:13:23+00:00

A Solar PV system converts sunlight into electricity using photovoltaic cells, providing renewable energy for your home or business.

How does an Air Source Heat Pump work?2024-11-26T00:14:54+00:00

An ASHP extracts heat from the outside air and transfers it indoors to heat your property and water, even in cold temperatures.

Can Solar PV systems and ASHPs be used together?2024-11-26T00:15:28+00:00

Yes, combining both systems allows solar-generated electricity to power the heat pump, enhancing energy efficiency and reducing utility bills.

What are the benefits of installing these systems?2024-11-26T00:16:04+00:00

Benefits include lower energy bills, reduced carbon footprint, eligibility for government incentives, and increased property value.

Are there government incentives available for these installations?2026-02-25T19:40:22+00:00

Yes, The Home Energy Scotland Grant and Loan Scheme provides homeowners in Scotland a grant, interest free loan or a combination of both to install clean heating systems and energy efficiency measures.

For heating systems such as heat pumps, grant funding of up to £7,500 is available, with an additional £7,500 of funding available as an optional interest free loan. An uplift of £1,500 is available for rural and island homes to both the heating and energy efficiency grants, meaning rural households can claim up to £16,500 in grant funding.

There is currently 0% VAT on residential solar panels and battery storage until 31 March 2027, significantly reducing upfront costs. This applies to both equipment and installation for residential properties (but not DIY installs or commercial properties).

How much do these systems cost to install?2024-11-26T00:18:12+00:00

Installation costs vary based on system size and property specifics. Heat pumps typically range from £4,000 to £8,000, while Solar PV systems depend on capacity and installation complexity.

How long do these systems last?2024-11-26T00:18:40+00:00

With proper maintenance, Solar PV systems can last 25-30 years, and ASHPs typically have a lifespan of 15-20 years.

Will these systems work in cold climates?2024-11-26T00:21:51+00:00

Yes, ASHPs are designed to operate efficiently even in cold climates, and Solar PV systems can generate electricity on cloudy days, though output is higher with more sunlight.

What maintenance is required?2024-11-26T00:23:26+00:00

Both systems require minimal maintenance. Regular checks and servicing ensure optimal performance and longevity.

How can I find a reputable installer?2026-02-25T19:45:15+00:00

When choosing an  installer, it’s important to work with a company accredited by the Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS) and a member of the Renewable Energy Consumer Code (RECC). Global Eco Energy Solutions holds both accreditations, giving you confidence that your installation meets recognised industry standards and consumer protection requirements.
