New MSC Certified Solar Panel Installers in Edinburgh
Capital City Electrical Services are delighted to announce that they are now MSC Certified Solar Panel Installers.

Why people in Scotland would want solar panels

When you think of Scotland, your first thought is unlikely to be sunshine and solar panels! However, for solar panels to work effectively you just need sunlight and we do get long Spring and Summer days when your panels can start generating electricity as soon as the sun comes up and continue until sunset. Even on a cloudy day, you will still generate some solar energy.

With the cost of energy increasing, more people are now looking to find ways of reducing their monthly electricity bills. Most people start by taking measures to reduce the amount of electricity they use. For example:

  • Switch to LED lighting
  • Always switch off lights when you leave a room
  • Switch off devices when you are finished using them eg televisions, computers, and games consoles.
  • Use the oven less and cook more things at once when you use it

Increasingly, people are looking for ways to be more environmentally friendly and reduce their CO2 emissions. 

Solar panels are environmentally friendly as they generate free electricity without any CO2 emissions. They also help householders to reduce their electricity bills.

At Capital City Electrical Services, we have been approved EV Charger Installers for some time now and this has become one of our most popular services as people convert to electric cars. It made sense for us to continue to look forward and to become fully qualified solar panel installers. Our solar panel installations can also include a solar panel battery so that you can store energy generated during the day for nighttime use.  This is ideal for people who are out at work during the day.

If you are not sure if solar panels would work on your home, please get in touch to arrange an appointment. We can visit homes in Edinburgh and throughout the Lothians, to explain what is possible and to provide you with a free no-obligation quote.
