Solar PV

How to benefit from nature’s most powerful energy source

In a single hour, the sun transmits more energy to the earth’s surface than the entire planet uses in a year.

It’s hardly surprising then with improvements in technology and lower installation costs that Photovoltaic Cells (solar panels) are becoming ever more popular as a source of energy.

Solar PV uses the energy from the sun to produce electricity, which you can then use in your home and/or export onto the grid. The panels themselves convert light into electricity, so they generate energy even on a cloudy day.

Why Choose Ashley & McDonough?

The effectiveness of Solar Energy often depends upon the panel technology itself and this is where we can help you.

We have years of experience, dealing with many of the leading manufacturers of solar energy products and we have carefully selected our partners based on quality.

All the solar energy products we provide are accredited by the MCS who are the accredited body for the Solar Photovoltaic industry, so you can be assured of being advised correctly.  You can also benefit from our bulk buying power, as a business who looks after 11,000 + properties, we drive a hard bargain with our suppliers, which allows our customers to benefit from trade pricing.

The Benefits of Solar Electricity

  • Reduce your bills: Although there is an initial outlay, sunlight is FREE, so your ongoing costs are reduced.
  • Sell electricity back to the grid: If your system is producing more electricity than you need, or when you can’t use it, you can sell the surplus back to the grid.
  • Lower your carbon footprint: A PV system could save over a tonne of CO2 per year – that’s more than 30 tonnes over its lifetime.

A Complete Solar PV Service

Right from the very start, we will support you throughout the process. It begins with a FREE, no-obligation survey in which one of our qualified surveyors visits you at your home or building. We would then provide you with a proposal detailing costs, payback, and any potential benefits you would receive.

For any systems that we install, Ashley & McDonough will also support you through the process of dealing with any planning consent that may be required from your local authority.

In fact, we look after everything.

Once this process is cleared, the installation takes no more than 2–3 days. We will even notify your electricity supplier to advise them of your connection to the national grid.
