Renewable Energy in Scotland
- Discover How to Save Money
When it comes to renewable energy in Scotland, independence from fossil fuels, maintaining security of energy supply and tackling climate change are the key challenges facing our generation.
Saving money on heating costs is a closely related imperative.
We decided to encapsulate the philosophy describing all those issues in 3 simple words: FUTURE PROOF ENERGY.
One company for all your renewable energy needs
We have the skills and expertise to design, supply and - most importantly - install and commission complete renewable eco-upgrade and heating systems using a range of heat sources like solar collectors, ground source heat pumps, air source heat pumps and stoves with back boiler.
One efficient company, one point of contact.
Renewable heat sources are Future Proof Energy
Why renewable heat sources are becoming so important? Currently heating accounts for 47% of the UK's carbon dioxide emissions and 60% of average domestic energy bills. In homes we use this heat to keep warm, for hot water and cooking. In other buildings it can also be used for industrial processes.
The most recent data show that approximately 69% of heat is produced from gas. Oil and electricity account for 11% and 14% respectively, solid fuel 3% and renewables just 1%. Gas and oil prices are rising steeply and are likely to continue to do so: demand is rising but supply is not, gas and oil reserves are likely to start 'running dry' over the next twenty years. The situation is likely to get worse not better.
Global energy demand is forecast to increase by around 40% between 2007 and 2030, with more than three quarters of the rise from fossil fuels. Without implementing renewable technologies on larger scale UK would be more reliant on imported fossil fuels, and further exposed to global energy price fluctuations, especially when demand recovers as the world emerges from the economic downturn.
Our range of eco-friendly heating solutions
It is time to think about renewable future proof solutions. We specialise in combining renewable energy sources, for example solar collectors with an air source heat pump and stove with back boiler - all linked via buffer / accumulator, and underfloor heating. All that to provide the truly optimum hot water and space heating system that really works, costs next to nothing to run, and is eco-friendly.
