Microgeneration Certification Scheme

MCS refers to the Microgeneration Certification Scheme. It is a requirement of the Domestic RHI scheme that all heating systems are certified by MCS. MCS is an internationally recognised quality assurance scheme supported by the Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS), formerly known as the Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC). MCS certifies both products and installation companies to help ensure that Microgeneration products are installed to a high standard.
Working with industry we define, maintain and improve quality – certifying products and installers so people can have confidence in the low-carbon technology they invest in. From solar and wind, to heat pumps, biomass and battery storage, we want to inspire a new generation of home-grown energy, fit for the needs of every UK home and community.: https://mcscertified.com/

What is Deposit Protection

Essentially when a deposit is collected the installing contractor should notify us of this and we will provide the homeowner with deposit protection insurance which is intended to put your customer back in the same financial position as they were should the installing contractor cease to trade before the installation is started/completed.

What is an Insurance Backed Guarantee

An insurance backed guarantee provides valuable consumer protection for homeowners and increases customers confidence that the installer is reliable and trustworthy.

Although a workmanship guarantee sets out the installing contractors obligation to rectify defects in the installation carried out, unfortunately this does not guarantee that they will always be around.

The purpose of an insurance backed guarantee is to honour the terms of the installing contractor’s own guarantee, where unfortunately the installing contractor has ceased to trade and is therefore unable to satisfy remedial claims made against their workmanship guarantee.

Should a homeowner find themselves in this unfortunate situation, they can claim against the insurance backed guarantee should there be a defect with the workmanship and the installing contractor has ceased to trade.

We have created a short video which briefly explains the purpose of an insurance backed guarantee, for more information please watch below;

“I want to thank you again for your efforts in organising, helping and getting the Solar Panels installed at our premises. Perhaps more importantly convincing me that this would be worth while exercise and yes it is, I thank you again in appreciation of your efforts.”

“Working with GDEA on our 3rd Solar project was a great success and they have a good team of people right from when the initial consultation starts, through the design process, project sign off and installation on site.”
Lucas DonaldsonLeeds
“GDEA worked hard before the project to come up with a solution that met our requirements. The centre was keen to have PV as a showcase for renewable energy technologies and we were really pleased that they helped us find a solution which enabled this installation to run smoothly”
