Useful links

Whilst doing research about solar power for our own system I found quite a few good sites for learning about solar power systems and for calculating predicted performance. Here are the most useful ones, all are worth a look -


YouGen is a site with lots of useful information on Solar PV and other renewable energy and technologies, well worth a look if you are starting to think about energy saving or micro-generation.


Energy Saving Trust cash back calculator is a great tool for calculating the expected return on your investment, well worth a look if you are planning to install a system.


The EU solar PV calculator - A useful resource for estimating how much energy your own system can be expected to produce.


Another useful calculator from Spirit Solar
Solar guide - Lots of useful information and a neat calculator to estimate income.


Solar Power portal - Industry news and resources.


Microgeneration Certificate Scheme (MCS) - information about the MCS 


Ofgem - Feed in Tarrif information


Swinny.net - some useful information about energy and solar power


PV output - A useful site with data from solar PV installations, quite a few UK locations so you can probably find one nearby to compare with your own system.
