Fenland - Domestic Solar Panels Catalogue

Fenland Solar, part of the Fenland Group and based in Peterborough, offered domestic solar photovoltaic (PV) panel installations to homeowners across the UK. As an MCS-registered installer, the company aimed to help households cut electricity bills by over 50% while earning government Feed-in Tariff payments guaranteed for 20 years and index linked. A free, no-obligation consultation was available to help homeowners understand whether solar PV was a viable option for their property.

Reducing Your Energy Bills with Solar PV

Solar PV systems convert sunlight into electricity, directly reducing the amount of power a household needs to buy from the grid. Fenland Solar highlighted that a well-sized domestic installation could cut electricity costs by more than half. Combined with protection against rising energy prices, this made solar panels an attractive long-term investment compared to traditional savings products such as ISAs or savings accounts.

Feed-in Tariff Payments

At the time this brochure was produced, the UK government's Feed-in Tariff (FiT) scheme rewarded solar panel owners with guaranteed payments for every unit of electricity generated, whether used on site or exported to the grid. These payments were index linked and locked in for 20 years, providing a predictable income stream that added further value to the initial installation cost.

MCS-Registered Installation

Fenland Solar was registered under the Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS), the industry standard that qualifies installers and products for government incentive schemes. Installations were carried out by trained professionals and the company offered affordable monthly payment options, making solar PV accessible to a wider range of homeowners.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a solar PV system and how does it work?

A solar photovoltaic (PV) system uses panels fitted to your roof to convert sunlight into usable electricity. The electricity generated can power appliances directly in your home, reducing the amount you draw from the national grid and therefore lowering your electricity bills.

How much could I save on my electricity bills?

Fenland Solar stated that a domestic solar PV installation could reduce electricity bills by over 50%, depending on the size of the system and the household's energy consumption. A free consultation would assess your individual property and usage to give a realistic saving estimate.

What was the Feed-in Tariff and is it still available?

The Feed-in Tariff was a UK government scheme that paid solar panel owners a set rate for every unit of electricity generated. Payments were guaranteed for 20 years and index linked to inflation. The FiT scheme closed to new applicants in March 2019 and was replaced by the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG), which pays for surplus electricity exported to the grid.

Did I need to own my home to install solar panels?

In most cases, yes. Because solar panels are a permanent fixture attached to the roof, the property owner's permission was required. Fenland Solar's free consultation would have covered any specific circumstances, including leasehold or shared-ownership situations.

What did the free consultation involve?

The no-strings-attached consultation involved a call from Fenland Solar's team to discuss your energy usage, property suitability, expected savings, and the available payment options. There was no obligation to proceed after the initial conversation.

Were the panels and installation covered by any quality standard?

Yes. Fenland Solar was MCS (Microgeneration Certification Scheme) registered, which meant both the products used and the installation work met the recognised industry quality standards required to qualify for government incentive schemes.
