quote for solar panels

Along with death and taxes there's one other certainty in life and that is that energy prices increase every year.

So the age of solar energy has finally dawned and what a magnificent sunrise it is turning out to be. Thirty five years ago the only people fitting solar panels to their roofs were a few geeky hippies at the Centre For Alternative Technology in Machynlleth, Wales, and some of the inspired pioneers among domestic users. Most or all of the panels in use then were solar powered water heaters. The solar PV (photovoltaic) cell technology was in its infancy.

Today solar panels (and those ready and waiting to install them) are in abundance, but unless you plan to do it yourself who should you choose to become your solar panel installer? With a growing market there will be some that are better than others and like builders and other tradesmen prices and quality of workmanship will vary.

Spark Your Child’s Imagination

Lazy summer days are the perfect time to team up with the children in your life on an entertaining project. Of course, the project will also have some educational value and there is no better way for young minds to learn than by playing with devices and finding out how they work in practical demonstrations.

Our favourite projects are DIY kits that let kids exercise creativity and burgeoning engineer skills to build really cool toys that utilize alternate energy sources. You’ll find several of these on in this section of our store.

What’s so great about these kits? When a child puts together a toy, he or she has more of a sense of ownership over it than would be the case if the toy was bought pre-assembled off the toy store shelf – and those positive associations will extend to the alternative energy source that powers the toy as well.

Alternative energy sources can be used to power things other than cars.  There are kits manufactured by educational toy companies like Science Time that are powered by solar energy rather than batteries or electricity. Other kits in the series include a solar powered helicopter, roller-coaster, boat and car.
