The kind of renewable energy systems you can use to heat
and light your home will very much depend upon your property and
energy needs.
The size and location of your property will affect the types of
renewable energy system you can install and it is important to
choose the right kind for your situation.
The first thing to consider is whether you are looking for a
renewable energy system which will provide you with energy for
heating, hot water or electricity.
You should then consider your existing energy system
and supply and which technology will integrate best with what you
already have.
Other factors which you should consider include the
following:
- How much you want to spend and the size of available
grants
- Will your renewable system supply all or part of your
energy needs
- Your location
There are also some other factors specific to each technology
which are outlined in the relevant pages within this section.
