Abstract
The UK domestic PV systems field trial aims to take a systematic approach to the assessment of the domestic application of PV in the UK and to develop best practice recommendations. The information from the 31 projects in the trial includes system performance over a 2-year period, together with buildability, reliability and maintenance, acceptability and user satisfaction. The paper presents an overview of the status of the field trial and provides examples of some of the projects. Design, installation, cost and performance issues are discussed.
