Why use renewable energy?

There is now a scientific consensus that climate change is real and that it poses an immense threat to the world we live in. To help lessen the effects of climate change, we must reduce the level of greenhouse gas emissions. This can be achieved by generating our energy from sources that emit low or even zero levels of greenhouse gases, such as renewable energy. We can also make sure that we use energy as efficiently as possible.

The cost of powering British homes has risen dramatically in recent years, with the average household now paying over £1,000 a year on fuel.

MCS Approved

Barrier Energy are MCS approved installers for solar domestic hot water, solar pv, air source heat pumps, ground source heat pumps and biomass boilers.

This gives Barrier Energy customers piece of mind that installations will be to the highest quality using approved methods and materials. It also means that customers of Barrier Energy now have access to a range of government and local council grants.


wind turbines

Wind Turbines


Wind turbines are a clean, green, cost effective way of powering your home.
 

solar water heating

Solar Water Heating


Solar panels absorb the energy from the sun and use it to heat water.
 

solar pv

Solar PV


Solar panels absorb the energy from the sun and use it to create electricity.
 


gasification boilers

Boilers


Highly effective gasifying boilers for burning wood.
 
 

underfloor heating

Underfloor Heating


Invisible and maintenance free, with no space consuming radiators.
 

ground source heat pumps

Heat Pumps


Collect energy stored in the earth or in the air and use it for space heating and domestic hot water.

Government Support

The Government has set a target for reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 60 per cent (relative to 1990 levels) by 2050.

As part of its wide-ranging drive to meet that target the Government is encouraging householders and others to use microgeneration technologies to produce sustainable energy.

At the same time the Government is emphasising the importance of energy efficiency and conservation. There is much all of us can do with relatively little effort to cut our energy use – and save money.

Please click on www.planningportal.gov.uk/england/public/planning/greenerhomes/ for further information. You will find a guide that looks at the main domestic microgeneration technologies and for the different ways to make more efficient use of energy in the home.

The Government has recently extended and clarified the scope of permitted development for installing microgeneration equipment in domestic properties.

The objective is to provide a clear set of rules that provide extra freedom for permitted development so long as it has little or no impact beyond the host property.

Wind turbines and air source heat pumps are not yet permitted development. However, once standards have been established to address the potential impacts of noise and vibration, these technologies will also enjoy permitted development rights
