For the first time in many years house prices have started to fall, it is believed that the installation of sustainable technologies i.e. solar PV panels or wind turbines can help prevent this fall or even increase the value of your home. This is due to the considerably reduced running costs making homes with onsite renewable generation very attractive to buyers. This is particularly true as energy/fuel prices continue to rise and more and more people are "feeling the pinch".
A feed-in wind turbine system can produce enough energy for 3 average homes. Of course you don't need all this energy but your neighbours may do. This surplus energy is purchased by your power company once exported to neighbouring properties. Many power companies will now credit you for all the energy you produced if you use it or not. Using this example you will have almost no electricity running costs and extra money in the bank!
Wind turbines are unfortunately not suitable for everybody's site so solar PV panels can be used in the same way to generate energy for your own use and to be exported to your neighbours.
Generating clean green energy from a wind turbine or a solar PV system is 100% renewable and can significantly reduce you carbon footprint. So you can save money at the same time as doing your bit to prevent climate change.
feed-in solar PV and wind turbine systems can be easily integrated into your existing building. There is no need to change anything! This said, we recommend becoming as energy efficient as possible. If you are generating your own energy it makes sense not to waste it!
feed-in systems help you to reduce your energy bills, reduce the reliance on the national grid and cut down your carbon footprint.
