Viridian announces that it has completed six months' testing of its innovative solar water heating product in its Automated Test House. Results are 10% ahead of predictions.

Stuart Elmes, Chief Executive of Viridian said "This facility we have constructed to test solar panels under realistic conditions is to our knowledge unique. Previous testing in the UK has taken neither the effect of the hot water use pattern, nor the effect of auxilliary heating into account."

The Automated Test House has been running a water use pattern according to the European standard for the average sized home. In the seven months to September, 1,050kWh of heat from the solar panel has been collected.
