The Advanced Group’s effort to provide energy efficient products has been what can only be describe as a success.

From Energy efficient triple glazed windows to solar PV systems and panels and everything in between, they have it covered

Our Solar PV systems are becoming more and more popular as people see the benefits of Solar Panels. Solar PV (Photovoltaic) technology has many benefits, it is a quiet, clean source of sustainable and renewable energy requiring minimal maintenance, and it lasts for over 20 years.

Not only is it competitive in terms of cost against other energy sources, it also directly contributes to reduction in greenhouse gases, giving you the satisfaction that you are actively reducing your carbon footprint and are doing your bit for the planet as well.

As the Solar PV module produces electricity, it saves you the money you would normally spend on electricity and you will be rewarded by exporting your excess back to the national grid, which acts as a kind of battery bank, which is one of the most attractive benefits of solar energy.  This is regulated by a Government backed guarantee scheme, FITs or Feed in Tariff Scheme, ensuring that you get paid for the electricity you generate through your solar panel installation, even if you use it yourself! This Solar Income is without a doubt, a win-win situation.

FIT’s, the feed-in Tariff agreements are currently running for 20 years and offer a whopping 14p per Kwh for current installations. Which is the reason why it is essential to have a reputable company come out and look at what your individual needs are, ensuring that any additional or excess energy created is exported back to the grid, but that’s not all, you will also receive a further minimum payment of 4.5p per Kwh which will be paid directly to you.

With the export tariff, you will get a further 4.5p per kWh from your current electricity supplier for each unit you export back to the national grid, so you can sell any electricity you generate, but only the units you don’t use yourself!

Your Energy supplier will pay you a set rate per unit or kWh of electricity you generate. This is called the Generation tariff. However, this is only once your solar PV system has been registered. The tariff levels are guaranteed for the whole period of the tariff and are index-linked, which means that nothing can change for the duration of the generation tariff.

The average Solar PV system will return roughly 12% (which is 100% Tax free) on your investment. Also this system size would create an average reduction of carbon emissions by up to 1.3 Tons per year, which is a serious dent in anyone’s carbon footprint. This is an estimated fuel saving at today’s prices of £7920 (if you are using all the power you generate).

When the benefits of anything are so obvious, it’s a wonder that the whole of the UK isn’t running on solar power. Although there is a general shift towards this as there are even local authority housing with solar installations because they know how much money they can generate by investing in solar and other than the initial outlay, which will be recouped in a few years, it’s nothing more than a council cash cow.

The only questions you have to ask are:

1. Do I want to save money on my electricity bill?

2. Do you want to make money for doing nothing?

The price of electricity will only going to keep rising over the coming years (OFGEM predict could be as high as 60% by 2020) this is a great opportunity for any consumer that has thought about installing a solar PV system to take the impetus and go for it.

If it helps, The Advanced Group could also offer you Nil Deposit green deal finance, so why not contact us today for your FREE, no obligation survey.

Make Green Money With Solar Panels

Want to Make Some Solar Money ?

We all know that most of us, particularly in Scotland, like to save money where possible. There is a way to save money and make money at the same time. How? By purchasing Solar Panels from The Advances Group, we even give you a FREE site survey and offer nil deposit finance to make this even more affordable than ever before.

The Government have a scheme to regulate the price you will be paid for selling energy back to the National Grid – The Governments Feed In Tariff scheme states that you will be paid for the electricity you generate through your solar panel installation, even if you use it yourself. Not a bad idea at all, but it gets even better because you will also be paid for any excess electricity you sell back to the national grid.

Of course you will also save on your electricity bill, because you’ll be using the electricity you have generated yourself, a real win-win situation.

If you still have questions you fell you would like to know, why not look at our Frequently Asked Questions page, it might have the answers your looking for.

Generation Tariff

Your energy supplier has to pay you a set rate for each unit (or kWh) of electricity you generate. Once your Advanced Solar PV System has been registered you will see the real benefit because the tariff levels are guaranteed for the whole period the tariff runs for and as these are all index-linked, nothing can change for the complete duration of the generation tariff.

Export Tariff

You will also receive a further 4.5p/kWh from your supplier for each unit you sell back to the national grid, so you can sell any electricity you generate but don’t use yourself, but then again, if you even get paid for generating the electricity whether you use it or not, who cares!

FIT’s

The Feed In Tariff agreements are currently running for 20 years, offering you 14p Kwh for current installations. There are many examples of this, and that is why it is essential to have a reputable company come out and look at what your individual needs are. This will help ensure that any additional energy created is exported back to the grid and a can earn a further minimum payment of 4.5p which will be paid directly to you. Add to this the savings made from not buying your energy from any power supplier and the return of investment increases dramatically.

Savings

On average an Advanced Solar PV system returns around 12% on your investment, which is completely tax free. This system could reduce your carbon emissions by up to 1.3 Tons per year. So if you care of the environment or have any desire to reduce the your carbon footprint, why not get paid for doing it. With an estimated fuel saving, at today’s prices of £7920 (if all the power you produce for your own use), savings and income is estimated to be much higher than that of an ISA.

Loggia - More than just a conservatory

If you are a little fed up with trying to keep up with the Jones’s, The Advanced group are pleased to offer something they probably won’t have – Loggia.

This is not just a conservatory, but a new concept that redefines the way we have all thought about conservatories in the past. The Loggia is like many iconic buildings created during the Italian Renaissance, which is where the inspiration for the Loggia has come. Many of those old buildings have stood through the times for two main reasons:

1. The rare design ingenuity

2. A total focus on longevity

This is why we have taken a lot of the design elements and integrated them within the Advanced loggia. Loggia corner columns follow those same guiding principles, possessing a core strength which affords real strength and durability ensuring that your Loggia will also stand the test of time.

A Loggia is highly energy efficient and the columns are super-insulated and precision engineered, with a U-value of only 0.15 W/m2 Degree C. This makes them more than twice as energy efficient as a normal insulated cavity wall and up to 10 times more effective than typical window glazing.

A loggia will also help reduce your heating bills, which, within a typical conservatory can escalate very easily. The Loggia’s integrated radiant heaters fit seamlessly into the full height of a corner and each provides more than half the heat you will ever require during a harsh winter. On average, ten times more heat will escape through windows than through a Loggia column, this is because of the high thermal performance of Loggia. On a Loggia, your heating costs will be reduced by almost two thirds meaning that your Loggia will pay for itself in essence.

With Loggia, nothing is left to chance. On the 90 degree corner columns, we input your postcode on our sophisticated analysis software U-design. Which will then calculate if additional structural support is needed and if so, seamlessly adds enhanced support where the columns integrate with the foundations.

Inside the Loggia, due to the construction, is just like a real internal room within a normal house and has a plastered finish just like traditional masonry.

With a such a wide range of options and styles available including P shape Loggia, T shape Loggia and Gable Loggia to afford you the style of Loggia you want. Available in either large or small sizes to suit your building, there is also the option to mix or match to suit your chosen design and budget.

Loggia full height columns, are location dependent because of the additional structural steelwork which is required, but this will be anchored to the foundations for absolute structural integrity.

Triple Glazing vs Double Glazing

Triple Glazing vs Double Glazing – no contest

New uPVC double glazed windows can transform the look of any home, and they’re a great investment too, but only for so long. Many of us when buying a new home in particular see the property we are considering and note that it has double glazing and think that’s great, lower heating costs and reduced noise from outside.

Unfortunately, what many people forget to do is find out how old the double glazing actually is and even fewer get a thermal efficiency report, which would alert you to any problems with the double Glazing.

The Advanced Group are a progressive company and we will come out and carry out a thermal efficiency check to ensure your windows are up to par but don’t worry if they are not…We have the answer right here. If you do need to replace your existing double glazing, consider our energy efficient Triple Glazing, with a lower u value than anyone else, which basically means that the thermal performance is better than any other windows on the market, giving you the best possible energy efficiency.

With our unique design consisting of 3 insulating layers of glass with two air spaces totalling 40mm. The air gaps provide the insulating layers that slow down the heat loss and reduce the opportunity for condensation to form.

Solar Energy

With the financial climate being nearly as bad as that of our planet, considering Solar Energy could well be considered a shrewd move, as there are currently around 24% of all households in the UK are in fuel poverty. The numbers in fuel poverty can only continue grow as the price of fuel is set to double over the next 5 years. Not only would you save on your energy bills and make a nice little tax free sum (of as much as £1200 in the first year) by selling your excess energy back to the national grid, you will also be reducing your carbon footprint and doing your bit to help the planet.

More and more people are tuning to solar energy because it’s clean, sustainable and earns a nice return.  The Solar PV (Photovoltaic) technology that is used in Advanced Groups Solar Panels lasts for over 20 years. By which time, the amount of energy generated by them will not only have powered your home it will have returned a nice fee from selling it back to the grid, but effectively it will have paid for itself over and over.

The Government has a scheme called the Feed In Tariff scheme (FIT), which means that you will be paid for the electricity you generate through your solar panel installation, even if you do use it yourself as well as for any electricity you export to the grid. Of course you’ll also save money on your electricity bill, because you’ll be using your own, which is a win-win situation.

FIT’s (feed-in Tariff) agreements areat the moment for 20 years and it offers 14p Kwh for current installations. This is why it is essential to have a reputable company come out and look at what your individual needs are, to help ensure that any additional energy created is exported back to the grid which will generate a further minimum payment of 4.5p and will be paid directly to you. Add to this the savings made from not buying your energy from power companies and the return on your investment increases year-on-year.

On average an Advanced Group Solar PV system will return somewhere around 12% Tax free on your investment of course that is per year. A system this size would reduce your carbon emissions by up to 1.3 Tons per year, which is an estimated fuel saving at today’s prices of £7920 (if you use all the power you produce). The big thing is that the savings and income is estimated to be much higher than that of say an ISA or many of the other financial investment products available today.

Remember though, any income you generate from selling the excess electricity you generate back to the national grid is completely 100% tax free and more so, this is guaranteed by the governments feed in tariff scheme (FITS).
