air source heat pumps can extract heat from cold air!

Air source heat pumps take heat from the air and concentrate it into heat for your home or hot water. They use a relatively small amount of electricity to create a lot of heat.

What’s so great about air source heat pumps?

  • Air source heat pumps can produce more than 3 times the amount of energy they consume.
  • They can reduce your heating bills by as much as 60%.
  • Air source can reduce a domestic  carbon footprint by up to 5 tonnes per year.
  • Heat pumps have a lifespan of 50 years, far more than the average boiler’s lifespan of just 15 years.

Renewable Heat Incentive

The Government has recently announced details about the Renewable Heat Incentive. Under this scheme, owners of certain heat-generation technologies will be paid for every unit of heat that they produce, making the financial equation even more attractive than it is now. greentomatoenergy helps its clients to understand how the Renewable Heat Incentive may affect them.

It isn’t sunny enough for solar panels to work in the UK.

Truth: The UK receives between 1200 and 700 kWh of solar energy per metre squared. This might not mean much to you, but every meter squared of your house receives enough energy to meet a quarter of your electricity demand. PV panels are then able to convert between 12% and 18% of that into electricity for your home. The town of Freiberg in southern Germany is home to the largest solar PV plant in Europe and across the entire town solar PV provides 35% of electricity demand. Despite having a total installed capacity of 3,200 kW, Freiberg receives less solar radiation per square metre than southern UK.
