Accreditations
An MCS, HIES, NAPIT, NFRC accredited company demonstrates a high level of competence and quality in renewable energy installation, home energy efficiency and roofing services. These accreditations ensure that the company adheres to industry standards and provides a professional, reliable service.
Here's a breakdown of each accreditation
What is MCS?
Quality Assurance: MCS certifies both renewable energy products (like solar panels) and installation companies. It assures consumers that the products and installers meet rigorous industry standards for quality, performance, and safety.
Consumer Confidence: The MCS mark is a sign of quality and reliability, helping customers trust that their renewable energy systems will perform efficiently and safely.
Access to Incentives: MCS certification is often a prerequisite for homeowners and businesses to access government incentives and schemes, such as the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) for solar PV. Energy suppliers are obligated to offer SEG tariffs only for MCS-certified installations.
Not a Legal Requirement (Generally): While not a legal requirement to install solar PV, MCS certification is essential for accessing many financial benefits and demonstrating competence.
Industry Standard: MCS is widely recognized as the benchmark for the microgeneration industry in the UK.
What is HIES Accreditation?
Consumer Protection Focus: HIES' primary goal is to protect consumers by ensuring that installers of renewable energy systems adhere to high standards of quality, professionalism, and customer care.
Chartered Trading Standards Institute (CTSI) Approved Code: HIES operates a Consumer Code approved by the CTSI, providing an extra layer of assurance for homeowners.
Emphasis on Fair Treatment: HIES accreditation signifies a commitment to treating customers fairly, with respect, and with professional integrity throughout their journey.
Beyond Technical Standards: While MCS focuses on the technical standards of products and installations, HIES emphasizes the customer experience, guarantees, and dispute resolution.
What is NAPIT Accreditation?
Multi-Trade Focus: Unlike MCS which is specific to microgeneration, NAPIT offers accreditation across a broader range of building services, including electrical, heating, plumbing, ventilation, and renewable energy technologies like solar PV.
Competent Person Scheme (CPS): NAPIT is a government-approved CPS operator, allowing certified members to self-certify their work as compliant with Building Regulations in England and Wales, particularly Part P for electrical safety in dwellings.
Emphasis on Technical Competence: NAPIT places a strong emphasis on the technical competence and ongoing professional development of its members.
UKAS Accredited: NAPIT's certification schemes are accredited by the United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS), demonstrating their robust and compliant operation.
What is NFRC Accreditation?
Focus on Roofing Excellence: NFRC accreditation demonstrates your company's commitment to high standards of workmanship, technical competence, and sound business practices within the roofing sector.
Strict Code of Practice: Members must adhere to a rigorous Code of Practice, which includes quality assurances and vetting procedures, including site inspections.
Government-Endorsed Standards: NFRC actively ensures its members comply with government-endorsed standards, including the TrustMark scheme for domestic contractors.
