Funding
Sources of Funding:
Although there are no longer any government grants available there are other incentives and initiatives which make an investment in sustainable and renewable technology something to consider.
Feed In Tariffs:
Introduced in April 2010 these tariffs apply to technologies that produce electricity such as Solar Photovoltaics. A 3.8kwP system installed in the right location has the potential to generate an income of around £1400 a year, as well as providing you with much of your electricity. You can find out more information at www.fitariffs.co.uk and www.est.org.uk.
Renewable Heat Incentive:
This is due to come into effect in April 2011 and is designed in a similar way to the Feed In Tariffs. Householders who install a renewable heat technology can qualify for payments to offset the initial costs. The RHI has not been finalised at this point in time and there may be changes in the final structure. Information available at www.rhincentive.co.uk.
Barclays Partner Finance:
We have a partnership with Barclays to provide finance for some forms of renewable energy. Please contact us for further information.
