£100 solar energy savings for North Lincolnshire Homes tenants in Scunthorpe

“Mozart:- My friend found at around 20/22 degrees C with full sun it gave highest output, when temperature reached mid 20's the output was lower, he contacted the electrician who did instalation and was told when the panels get very hot they are not as efficient so slightly reduced output. My mate is old and can't do a lot now so he often spends time monitoring the solar output on his computer which has a bluetooth connection to the solar panel control unit, readings are stored on computer. He also had the solar water heating panels fitted first and they have been a great success.”

“But why are these funds not open to all , eg normal house owners who have worked and paid taxes ,NLH is a company .No wonder house sales are down .You get it all free with such company's weather your a worker or not .”

“IT_MAN.You're missing my point so I've copied here part of your first post quote "they are most effective on a warm sunny day". Then you go on to contradict yourself in the second post you made quote "they reduce ouput when the panels get hot in very sunny conditions".”

“"I used to put £15 a week in the meter and now I only put £7 in and have some left". That's a little obvious I would have thought. Clearly a maths genius in the making.”

“New windows, new doors, new roofs, fascia, guttering, aerials, satellites, new driveways, fences, gardens, kitchens, bathrooms, wall cladding, re-wiring, heating systems, air con, cavity and loft insulation and NOW "here have some FREE solar panels" ALL paid for by everyone else (called taxpayers) at roughly £40,000 per property - and then (in general) pay no rent, no council tax and no income tax - and a wee while up the road you'll be able to purchase these properties at super low prices on government subsidised and underwritten mortgages that no-one else can get and then sell them on for an 80% profit ..... Nope - I for one see no resentment brewing in the general taxpayer home owning sector who get absolute jack s*** in handouts.”

“the external wall insulation is part of a Big energy upgrade programme part financed by European regional development fund. Why has these funds been given to a private housing company and not been made available to private house owners , Surely a company should pay for their own upgrades from rents collected , This is discrimination against people who have worked and bought their houses paid taxes and should be looked at .After all it money our government has paid into the EU filtered back in grants and funds ,To private company's .”

“I have a cunning plan for cheap energy that will also help reduce obesity.

Those big empty shops in the town center should be kitted out with loads of exercise bikes which are hooked up to dynamos and connected to the national grid.

Anyone claiming benefits would have to do 2 hrs a day pedaling (plus 30 minutes per child being claimed for) in order to receive their cash.”

“by Mozart. We know they work by light if you are happy with less than 20% output, if you watch the output on a reasonable sunny day you maybe produceing 3kWh but a light cloud passes over the sun in then drops below 1kWh, without sun they are a waste of money, they reduce ouput when the panels get hot in very sunny conditions, my friends 4kWk system has never produced full 4kWh, confirmed by supplier after purchase. The tariff received for production is wrong but nu liebor put these silly tariffs on renewable energy to get sales and votes not considering how much it adds to every users energy bills in form of green taxes, the current goverment have reduced the tariffs and I believe it drops again shortly so will be imposible to sell even at lower prices.
Wind and solar power have to have gas turbines running full time as a backup for wind turbines and solarhave to be, when windy they often paid to shut down wind turbines as they are uncontrolable and could fail.

by englander61, I full agree with your comments.”

It does not have to be warm,they work on light - not heat.”

“NLH pampering again this money should be shared with private house owners as well , no wonder houses are not selling with NLH elct , house owners have to work to keep their houses in good order , give up holidays and cut back on other things , Its tax payers money it may have been moved around a bit from one trust to another , why should these people be so privileged many in NLH premises are on benefits only the workers have to struggle .”
