Solar Photovoltaic (PV) panels are generally installed on a roof and use the energy from the sun to power any electrical appliance in your home, including electric radiators. This electricity is free to produce and is great for the environment as no carbon is given off during the production process, unlike electricity. .
As previously mentioned, a solar inverter is a very important component in a solar powered system as it converts the direct current (DC) from the solar panel to an alternating current (AC). .
Electric radiator technology has come on leaps and bounds in recent years and there are now a huge variety of designs, sizes and finishes all optimised to be as energy efficient as.

An electric boiler does what it says - it simply uses electricity to heat water instead of gas, but many of the parts and functions are the same. They’re particularly beneficial for homes that don’t have a nearby gas supply, of which there are around four million in the UK, and are thought to be a little more environmentally friendly. .
As already mentioned, there are two main types of domestic electric boiler. We explain how each one works below. .
There are loads of benefits of an electric boiler, from cheaper installation to easy maintenance. But are they better for the environment? While many sites state that electric boilers are better.
