Mr Benedict Goh, chief investment officer of UTICA, said another draw of solar panels today is the increased efficiency and return on investment.
“When we started selling goods related to solar panels in 2004, costs were much higher and the return on investment was around 10 to 15 years… but now, it’s more efficient and costs have dropped by half of what they were in early 2010,” he said.
“The energy generated is often more than the household consumption, so when they sell to the grid, some of our customers even get negative utility bills each month because they’re owed money,” he said, adding it can save customers between 40 and 80 per cent of their monthly consumption bills.

Besides providing clean power, solar panels on roofs can lower the temperature as well, said Mr Benedict Goh, chief investment officer of Utica Solar. “When you have a solar panel on top of the roof, it’s an added insulation. The air that’s trapped between the panel and the roof adds another layer, and … even if you don’t switch on the aircon, it’ll be at least two, two-and-a-half degrees cooler inside the building”.

UTICA® solar energy system provides roof shade, a modern appearance and also helps achieve energy independence for the building.
Our premium solar panels are designed from the latest photovoltaic technology and are made of high spectrum low reflection transmissivity tempered glass. The underlying cut-cells consist of high-performance advance monocrystalline silicon that are made to generate continuous solar electricity for over 30 years.

Photovoltaic is one of the most commonly applied strategies in architecture. The benefits of installing UTICA® solar can be seen in a short period of time, with a reduction of up to 90% in the monthly electricity expenses, which makes it one of the most attractive renewable energy solutions. Furthermore, the average lifespan of our solar panels is over 25 years and require minimal maintenance.

Driven by innovation and to give better access to clean energy, UTICA® solar has developed a range of professional solar energy systems which are durable and efficient. During installation, our emphasis is placed on workmanship quality and safety.

Agriculture and garden solar energy systems with power storage are just one of the many innovations of UTICA® solar technology. They provide city dwellers with energy-efficient systems that harness the sun’s energy to power their electrical equipment, such as water pumps, auto sprinklers and lightings without the need to connect to the utility grid.

UTICA® solar can help homeowners save money with lower utility bills. Solar energy is a worthwhile investment not only for homeowners but also for investors and businesses. Solar electricity can be monetized when it is sold to the utility power company.

Using UTICA® solar has many benefits, such as saving money, helping combat greenhouse gas emissions, as well as reducing the collective use of fossil fuels. Our professional PV systems do not release gaseous or liquid pollutants into the environment, thus making them a much cleaner alternative. Finally, it makes your house/ building architecturally modern and beautiful.

Customer satisfaction is our number one priority and we do everything we can to meet your expectations; therefore, it is important for us to understand exactly what you as a customer want.
UTICA® solar technical support services are designed to integrate, maintain, and optimize solar energy systems and help reduce unplanned downtime. Our strong after-sales support services include troubleshooting and repairing faults, and configuring the power system’s hardware and software.

Using renewable energy to power your house helps to safeguard the environment and minimises your carbon footprint. With our 18 years of experience and expertise in the Solar PV industry, UTICA® is on a mission to develop and produce high quality every day consumer solar products and professional solar energy systems with hassle-free remote monitoring and maintenance.

UTICA® solar energy systems can be installed on many different types of roofs and the architectural clay tiled roof is one of the most common type. The steel hook brackets are inserted beneath the tiles and secured to the rafters with no penetration to the tiles. The PV railing tracks are mounted to the hooks leaving a space ventilation between the roof and the photovoltaic modules. This also allows for air circulation to cool between solar modules and the roof.

Your electricity bill will be lower because you will get most of your electricity from the photovoltaic modules. The amount of money saved by using UTICA® solar differs from one owner to another and it largely depends on the roof design and electricity usage as well as the total installed capacity of the solar energy system.
If you produce excess solar electricity and export back the surplus energy to the utility grid, your electricity retailer may even pay you for it and also by using energy storage system, you can store the excess solar power for evening use or on-demand.
