Renewable
energy technologies provide the opportunity to reduce
home heating costs together with supporting the principals
of reducing greenhouse gases and carbon omissions. WHS
Associates have been involved in these technologies in
their design work since the early days of combined heating
power installations in the early 90’s.
Real
opportunities now exist for individual homeowners to
take advantage of the massive investment and innovations
that now present themselves commercially in the home
and residential market.
WHS
Associates can help you to consider alternative heating
and power micro generation opportunities when extending,
improving or building new homes. As part of our service,
we will discuss the opportunities that are available
and obtain competitive alternative quotations for renewable
energy options for heat and power in your home. We can
also assist with obtaining grants (Low Carbon Building
Programme) of up to £2,500 for installing renewable
energy technologies that could be used in your project.
