Can school energy bills benefit from Solar PV installations?

School buildings with sufficient roof space can benefit from solar PV installations. The electricity generated can be used within the school (or college or university) or exported to the grid to generated feed-in-tariffs. Solar PV installations can also be coupled with local energy storage solutions allowing the school facility to provide a source of uninterruptible power should the mains power supply fail. Solar PV installations also have an educational benefit in school and college environments helping to demonstrate renewable power to students.
