Renewable Energy Options

Solar energy efficiency in the UK: Portishead

Portishead is an ideal location for solar PV

Why so much better? High UV Low pollution levels Cooler summers Performance as good as Spain owing to temperature Because of significant drop-off above 30°C Only one day a year in Portishead!

Portishead is also ideal for: Wind Wave Tide

Examples of investment in renewables...

Island of Eigg

Flatholme

Both these concentrate on wind and sun Simple to install Island location; delivery a challenge Many more options on mainland...

Primary challenge with renewables: Free energy after installation Significant up-front cost Government incentives to help with this: Feed-in Tariff for PV Paid for ALL the electricity you generate And you benefit from free electricity From April 2014 – Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) Paid for offsetting fossil fuels with renewables Typical pay-back of 5-7 years Ongoing savings from reduced energy bills

Examples of renewables: Biomass (pellet) boilers Suitable for older properties with average insulation Heat pumps Suitable for modern, well insulated properties Solar thermal for hot water Commercial BiomassDomestic Biomass

Further challenge: Mains gas From 2016 no new houses will be connected to the gas main Mandatory requirements: Super-efficient homes Renewable energy sources

The future: PV is simple and inexpensive to install Efficient and maintenance free Solarsense panels – low ‘carbon footprint’ Manufactured in Sweden using hydroelectricity Discreet PV systems available...

Solar Tiles Solar Slates

Complete solar roofs HighgroveCroyde Holiday Cottage

The future: Low energy lighting Battery storage – for electricity at night Heat pumps Extract energy from air or ground 1kW of electricity produces 3kW heat Electric vehicles When do you have time to charge a car? Most cars stand idle for 80% of the day Kendleston Manor

Community: “Power Parks” Sun or wind Typical investment of £250 to £5,000 Guaranteed return of 5-8% for 20 years Biomass Area heating schemes Blocks of flats or entire streets
