Renewable energy is the hero combatting energy inefficiency, like the gas boilers that are costing UK household thousands in energy bills each year as well as pumping out a terrifyling large amount of carbon emissions.
Renewable energy such as solar panels, heat pumps, and insulation are all on the rise in popularity and the best of all, these renewable upgrades could be free to you!
Apply for renewable upgrade below:
Gas Boilers vs Heat Pumps
Traditional gas boilers offer a lifespan of 10-15 years however in this time, their efficiency drops by about 90% which can see your energy bills rising astronomically, anyhwere between £900 – £1,500 a year! Gas boilers collectively produce eight times as much nitrogen dioxide as power plants, it boggles the mind to imagine how much they produce during a 15 year life span!
| Gas Boilers | Heat Pumps |
| Running costs: £900-£1,500/year | £850-£1,300/year |
| Efficiency: 90% | 300-400% |
| Lifespan: 10-15 years | 15-25 years |
| Carbon: High Emissions | Less emissions |
Heat Pumps Saving & Benefits
- Heat pumps use less energy, around 50-70% to be exact!
- There are grants available for up to £7,500.
- Better for the enviroment.
No Solar Panels vs Solar Panels
Solar panels generate their electricity from the suns rays to power homes. These homes are paying anywhere between £1,000 and £2,000 a year and sourcing their energy from from the grid which mostly still makes use of fossil fuels to generate energy.
| Before Solar Panels | Solar Panels Installed |
| Electricity bill: £1,000-£2,000/year | £800/year |
| Energy from the Grid (fossil fuels) | Energy is free from the sun |
| Carbon emissions: high | Carbon emissions: low |
Solar Panels Savings & Benefits
- Save up to £800 a year on bills.
- Sell excess generated energy with the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG).
- Government-backed grants and 0% VAT.
- Solar adds value to your home.
Poor Insulation vs Insulation
Insulation is the neat little bow tying up all the renewable energy together! It keeps the heat within a property, helping maintain a comfortable temperature throughout the day. If the level of insulation is poor, a home will lose heat at a rapid pace – homes can lose up to 35% of it’s heat through the walls alone!
| Poor Insulation | New Insulation |
| Heating bills: £1,200-£2,500/year | Heating Bill: £600-£1,500/year (Save up to 50%!) |
| Heat Loss: Up to 35% through walls, 25% through roof | Heat Retention: More warmth in winter, cooler in summer |
| Home Comfort: Cold in winter, hot in summer | Home Comfort: Stable & cozy temperature |
Insulation Saving & Benefits
- Government grants for insulation are available.
- Reduces your properties carbon footprint.
- Add value to your home.
