The best protection against rising energy bills is to generate your own power.
That’s the view of Solmatix Renewables Managing Director. Neville Bell, in the wake of the latest energy price increases announced by Power NI and Firmus Energy.
“Every time energy prices rise, households across Northern Ireland are reminded of just how little control they have over the cost of the energy they consume.
While global markets and wholesale prices will continue to fluctuate, homeowners do have the opportunity to reduce their reliance on the grid and take greater control of their energy costs through solar power and battery storage.
What we are seeing is a significant shift in consumer behaviour. People are becoming more informed, researching the facts, and taking the time to understand how solar can help protect them from future price increases while reducing their monthly energy bills.
Solar is no longer viewed solely as an environmental choice. For many households, it is now a smart financial investment that delivers long-term savings, greater energy independence, and increased certainty around future costs.
The reality is simple. The best protection against rising energy bills is generating more of your own power.
As energy prices continue to increase, now is the ideal time for homeowners to explore the options available to them, understand the potential savings and make informed decisions about their energy future.”
