MCS certification
Ensure that your microgeneration products such as photovoltaic panels and heat pumps comply with the Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS).What is MCS certification?
The Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS) is the independent scheme that certifies microgeneration products such as photovoltaic panels and heat pumps in accordance with consistent standards. It aims to decarbonise heat and power in UK homes in support of the UK’s government’s Net Zero by 2050 Initiative.
MCS certification helps businesses demonstrate compliance with stringent standards for performance, safety and efficiency, so that they can deliver effective and reliable renewable energy systems. This signifies that a business meets high standards for product quality and installation practices.
TÜV SÜD is an accredited MCS certification body that verifies compliance with MCS standards through product testing and a factory production control audit. Following that, we have the authority to recommend certification to the scheme licensee. If successfully certified, the product is affixed with the MCS logo.
Why MCS certification is important
MCS accreditation verifies that microgeneration products and installations are of high quality and reliability, which is necessary before they can perform their roles in power generation. It shows that these products and services fulfill strict industry standards for efficiency and safety. It serves as a mark of quality that businesses and consumers can trust, which can help you stand out in a competitive market.
Furthermore, assuring the performance and longevity of renewable energy solutions is crucial to build consumer confidence and support environmental sustainability.
