Micro-Generation Gets Technical Facelift

Solar and Wind Applications have recently teamed up with Irish company Coolpower Products as distributors and installers of the EMMA, Energy and Micro-Generator Manager.

This device not only maximises the earnings of your solar PV or wind turbine generator system, but it also provides you with hot water and can solve various problems with connecting larger generators to the National Grid.

The EMMA is being hailed as one of the greatest technical breakthroughs in the micro-generation sector, and along with the assistance of the Feed in Tariff, the product will be a great addition to a system to anybody investing in the products and services provided by Solar and Wind Applications.

Working with some of the worlds' leading renewable energy experts, Coolpower Products have developed the product and rigorously tested on many sites with various generators and now have a finished product which works perfectly with your new or existing micro-generator system. In Scotland, Solar and Wind Applications are the exclusive distributor of this product for Solar PV installations, and they are delighted to be working alongside such a vastly knowledgeable and experienced company...and installing such a superb piece of equipment.

This relationship marks a step forward for Solar and Wind Applications, having been recognised as the leading solar PV installer in Scotland, as well as being a company ideally set up to accept such a ground-breaking product into its services, working on expertise gained of the last 7 years in business in the renewables industry.

The first batch of installations have gone well in Scotland, and they are receiving very positive feedback from their happy customers. Whether you are retrofitting to an existing installation, or starting from scratch, they would be happy to discuss the many benefits of installing both an EMMA and a generator to your property. Just see their listing or website for more information on installations of the unit, or if you would like to become an installer.
