ACT NOW! Please be aware that this period of the year, Spring and Summer, are traditionally 'quiet' for those companies providing loft and cavity wall insulation and so now is the best time to make your enquiry - it should be dealt with relatively quickly. Leaving it until the Autumn or Winter, when surveyors and installers alike are getting busy, could mean you missing out on the savings to be made during the colder months.

Pre Budget Report, 09 Dec 09: "From April 2010, people with a home wind turbine or solar panels who plug their excess power into the national grid will receive on average £900 a year," Mr Darling said. "I intend to make this tax free."

Small Scale Hydro.

A typical domestic 6kWh hydro system working at maximum capacity could produce 52000kWh per year, twice the house holds energy needs with the excess sold back the the national grid. This will typically cost £10,000 to install, an initial £6,000 for the small hydro programme and an extra 3 kW at £1,000 per kw. This should save you 100% on your electricity bill and any excess can be sold back to the electicity supplier.

Grant savings. With a maximum of £1,000 per Kw of installed capacity, subject to an overall maximum £2,500 or 30% of the relevant eligible costs, whichever is lowest.

Please note:

There is currently a £2,500 grant cap per household for micro-generation, solar heating and other technologies. You may apply for grant towards more than one technology, subject to the maximum overall of £2,500,

In adition, before applying you are required to:

a) insulate the whole of the loft of the property to meet current building regulations e.g. 270mm of mineral wool loft insulation or suitable alternative;
b) install cavity wall insulation (if you have cavity walls);
c) fit low energy light bulbs in all appropriate light fittings;
d) install controls for your heating system to include a room thermostat and a programmer or timer.

Please note:

Due to heavy demand, your enquiry may not be replied to for a month or more.
Please be patient while we process it.
