Power My Home is a culmination of decades of my experience in the UK's solar industry. Today, I help people navigate a more mature but oversaturated marketplace. I help new adopters get a better deal, and older adopters pursue ancillary products.
My journey down this road was exploratory at first, as yours is today. Back then, I created Heat My Home because the solar heating industry was a wild west of terrible technology and installers during this period. Determined to help those earliest solar adopters, I showcased the best technologies while directing people to more reputable installers during those embryonic days.
I'm proud to have supported the BRE regulation rollout that made Britain a world leader in installation standards and sales etiquette. I'm happy to report that I inspired 35,131 new PV solar panel installations in more recent times.
I was commended for my work in 2010 by the Renewable Energy Consumer Code. The RECC's perseverance created this world-leading industry we see today.
A common question is, “Will my solar panels still give me power under blackout conditions?” “Not without a battery storage device, and not all storage devices can offer a standalone backup service”, is my general response. A PV system doesn’t know if workmen are working at the end of the road, so they’re designed to […]
Why are solar panels common sense today? Adapting to external forces is what solar panels offer. Today, astute people are adapting to homeworking by installing PV. The era of cheap energy is now a long distant memory. Self-generation can no longer be pigeonholed into the green agenda. In the last few years, adoption has grown […]
The golden age of cheap energy has been over for two decades now! At what future point in time do you take alternatives seriously? Additionally, traditional forms of storing value and increasing value are kaput! In this crazy abnormal world, solar panels never looked so good. New normality with solar panels was last modified: December […]
The disdain for weakness is inbuilt into DNA itself. Do social engineers hold dependent consumers in contempt? Dependency breeds weakness personally, societally, and geopolitically. Therefore, since your electricity, water, transport, education, communications are supplied by those you’re not allowed to criticise, then a personal and national rethink is overdue. Strength through solar panels was last […]
Solar panels and working at home go together like cheese and toast. Businesses will twig that they can dramatically cut expenses by shifting energy costs towards the employees and save on office space too. It’ll be this thinking that will bounce the economies back once the starting pistol gets fired. Commuter costs come down, but […]
Sixteen years later, I’m reflecting on my efforts to encourage solar panel adoption. PV solar panels have brought me vast amounts of joy in my life and had ups and downs like any relationship. The inside-industry nickname and aptly named Solar Coaster Ride of the last decade never dampened my enthusiasm for these technologies. Never […]
