Renewable energy is becoming more & more popular by the day as incentives are being given for householders and business owners to invest in these types of technology.

  • Solar Photvoltaic (PV) panels.

The government introduced the Feed in Tariff FIT’s) in April 2010 for Solar Photovoltaic(Electric) installations, allowing you to be able to generate your own electricity and get paid for doing so. A typical system of 2.2kw on  a south facing roof in the South of England will typically produce  approx £1,000 of income each year for 25 years TAX FREE. Typical payback periods of between 7-12 years and ROI of between 7-13% are currently being achieved.

  • Solar Thermal(Hot Water)

Solar thermal is a very popular option supplying you up to 70% of your hot water needs throughout the year. Typical savings would be approx 20% on your Gas/Oil/LPG/electric bill per annum. With the introduction of the Renewable Heating Incentive (RHI) in October 2012, anyone installing this technology between 15th July 2009 and October 2012 will benefit from an annual payment of approx £300 per annum for the next 20 years on top of your annual savings.

  • Air Source & Ground Source Heat Pumps

This type of technology replaces your current heating and hot water system.
