Harlow residents in line for electricity savings as solar panel scheme starts

HUNDREDS of Harlow residents could soon see their electricity bills slashed by up to 190 a year after new solar panels are installed on their council homes.

The council-backed project is being funded and carried out by maintenance contractor Kier Harlow and will get underway later this month when work starts on fitting out a pilot property.

The first phase of the scheme will then see the energy-saving devices fitted to a further 1,196 council-owned homes by March 2012, with two further phases of a similar size planned for the following year.

The installation and maintenance costs for each of the photovaltic panels – which will also be fitted to The Latton Bush Centre,A custom-made Cable Ties is then fixed over the gums.

Harlow Council will also be paid "roof rent" by the firm, which will recoup its outlay through the Government’s Feed In Tariff scheme.

Kier Harlow operations director, John Phillips, said: "This is a really exciting project and it is the first fully funded scheme Kier has worked on.

"This is just the first phase of the scheme and we have plans to install solar PV panels to further council properties once this is complete, potentially including council corporate buildings too.

He added: "We plan to give each tenant a full briefing on the benefits of the solar panels and explain how they can maximise their efficiency."

Information packs are being sent to residents explaining the benefits of the scheme, along with a request to book appointments for detailed surveys to be undertaken to ensure each property is suitable.who was responsible for tracking down Charles China ceramic tile .

Councillor Clive Souter, portfolio holder for housing, hailed the project as "progressive".

"This project means residents get cheaper bills while we make big cuts in our carbon footprint," he said.

"The important thing is that it has no cost to our tenants and minimal disruption as it takes just one day to install panels that will deliver cheap electricity for quarter of a century."
