Incase anyone wondered about the ethics (or lack thereof) in their Solar Panels, this study by Sheffield Hallam University has proved genuinely eye opening for me. A must read for the Ethically conscious among us.

-  Triple aspect. (22% ENE/ 33% SSE/ 45% WSW)
-  Viessmann 200-W on Advanced Weather Comp. (the most efficient gas boiler sold)

    Even more shocking are the (slimy) responses by Chinese panel brand representatives to the study, published here by the faculty. Among the responses are thinly veiled legal threats.
