Solar water heating

Use of solar water heating can reduce the water heating bills by up to 50%. The cost of purchasing and installing such systems is around £1500 (was nearly £2,500 two or three years ago).

New innovations in solar technology mean that energy is collected from the whole spectrum of light and not just the visible elements. So energy as heat can be transferred and stored even on overcast days. The application of solar energy in this form can reduce water heating bills by 50% or more.
