What is npower Solar energy?
Using the sun's natural energy to generate electricity and hot water
No matter where you live in the UK, you can take advantage of the sun's natural energy to generate your own electricity and hot water. Even on cloudy days, solar panels can capture solar rays and convert them into electricity or hot water depending on the system. They do this silently and because they don't emit any harmful pollution, they will increase your home's and family's green credentials.
To find out more about solar energy and microgeneration we have created some useful online tools. Our online Suitability Check tool helps you assess the suitability of your property for Solar electricity and Solar Thermal technologies. We also have HowTo.tv videos and information online to help you understand more about using these at your home. For personal advice you can call our customer help line to talk to an advisor.
