But even so – and even in the face of the ongoing economic difficulties – companies such as SolarUK have seen plenty of enquiries from potential customers who are aware that a well-designed system (such as the LaZer2) can provide 50% to 70% of a household’s hot water needs, often rising to 100% during the warmest months of the year (these percentages apply to the UK). As oil and gas prices continue to rise, solar hot water is looking more and more cost-effective in comparison.

The wider solar industry could see positive results from new research from the independent EU Energy Institute, which says that solar panels will fall in price quicker than previously expected, adding that they are such a good long-term investment that banks should offer homeowners mortgages on them. Solar could be set for ‘grid parity’ sooner than many think (that is, it’ll be as cheap for someone to generate power at home as it is to buy from the grid).
