[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 450569, member: 6969"] Well the VERY first thing I would do is turn those 45 6 foot florry's OFF when the shop is closed. That is absolute madness to leave them on 24/7. At the flick of a switch (or timer if you can't trust staff to flick the switch) you will more than halve your electricity bill at no or minimal cost. Then solar PV makes a lot more sense as Binky has pointed out if most of your usage is in the daytime. Given that the FIT is so low, it appears the self use saving exceeds the FIT payment. I have o question is it actually worth claiming the FIT? In order to claim the FIT you have to use an MCS registered installer many of whom seem to charge a premium because they know they are the only ones that can do it. forget about the FIT and any electrician can fit them probably a good deal cheaper than an MCS company? That is certainly how I am looking at it for when I install PV on my new build. [/QUOTE]
