[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 245479, member: 6969"] Having done 1 system, I want to find out more, so a couple of questions: What's involved in becoming MCS acredited? i.e what are the prerequisite qualifications for doing the course, what's the cost and duration, and what are the ongoing costs after getting acredited? Secondly, is the FIT available to EVERYONE irrespective of who their DNO is? That may sound a silly question but what I'm getting at is I do the wiring for a local builder who builds eco houses, and I'm wondering whether to try and get him interested in fitting solar PV to them. That would obviously mean me geting MCS acredited, which would depend on costs as we only do 2 or 3 of these a year so it may be prohibitive. But secondly, where a lot of them go, the supply on site is maintained and administered by the park owner, so the park owner is the DNO effectively. The park is connected to the grid, but would the FIT rate still be available? [/QUOTE]
