Government Grants & Tariff Eligibility
Because Gwella Group holds full MCS certification, all installations they complete are automatically eligible for UK government financial incentives. This is a critical advantage — using an uncertified installer permanently disqualifies you from these schemes with no route to reverse the decision retroactively.
Smart Export Guarantee (SEG)
Every solar installation by Gwella Group is MCS registered, making you eligible to apply for the Smart Export Guarantee — an ongoing income paid by energy suppliers for surplus solar electricity exported to the national grid. SEG rates from major suppliers currently range from 3p to 15p per kWh exported.
Boiler Upgrade Scheme — £9,000 Heat Pump Grant
If you are considering an air source heat pump, Gwella Group's MCS certification means you qualify for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) grant of £9,000, applied directly as a reduction to your installer invoice. The scheme runs until at least 31 December 2027. Your installer manages the BUS application process on your behalf.
0% VAT on Installations
All residential solar PV, battery storage, and heat pump installations currently attract 0% VAT until at least April 2027. All quotes from Gwella Group should reflect this — any quote including 20% VAT on the full installation cost should be questioned.
ECO4 Scheme (Lower-Income Households)
Lower-income households in Wales & Border, North West England, Midlands with a property EPC rating of D–G and household income under £31,000 may qualify for heavily subsidised or fully funded energy upgrades under the ECO4 scheme. Ask Gwella Group about ECO4 eligibility during your initial consultation.
