Green Technology

The UK energy market is changing shape, mainly as a result of the Government’s drive for reduced carbon emissions and increased renewable energy. This opens us a world of opportunity for the development of clean, green solutions, many of which we’re familiar with through the Green Energy Trust.

The products and technologies of tomorrow include:

• Solar photovoltaic (PV) panels which harness the power of the sun to generate electricity
• Micro-CHP (Combined Heat & Power) gas boilers that generate electricity as a by-product and so, effectively for free
• Air and ground source heat pumps which use the heat they extract from their surroundings to heat radiators and under floor heating systems
• Wind turbines which harness the wind’s power to generate electricity
• In-home energy monitoring that enables customers to measure, collect, access and control their energy consumption.

For further information on any of these innovative products and technologies, visit the Energy Saving Trust website.
