We provide independent advice on renewable technologies for households and businesses in Northumberland and throughout the North East and North Yorkshire region. We can help you take some easy steps to become more efficient which will guarantee to reduce your energy bills. Green Energy Generation can also help you to understand how you can benefit from investing in renewables and earn a tax free income whilst reducing your carbon footprint.
GEG UK was established in the North East to assist property owners, commercial tenants, councils and housing associations of the benefits involved in understanding and investing in renewable technologies. We have the experience and the knowledge of all renewable technologies such as biomass, heat pumps, solar pv and solar thermal from domestic and commercial to agricultural, covering all roof types and building applications. At Green Energy Generation we believe our independence gives us a distinct advantage in the renewable Technology market.
Underfloor heating systems - which can sit beneath stone, tile, wooden or even carpeted surfaces - will help to keep cold floors and rooms warm; offering an alternative to using radiators to deliver central heating. See below to find out more about wet and dry systems and the advantages of underfloor heating. A series of electric wires are installed beneath or within your flooring as a means of heating the area of the room. The electric system you install will depend on the size of the room and the type of flooring it has.
Heat pumps offer the most energy-efficient way to provide heating and cooling in many applications, as they can use renewable heat sources in our surroundings. Even at temperatures we consider to be cold, air, ground and water contain useful heat that's continuously replenished by the sun. By applying a little more energy, a heat pump can raise the temperature of this heat energy to the level needed. Through this unique ability, heat pumps can radically improve the energy efficiency and environmental value of any heating system that is driven by primary energy resources such as fuel or power.
According to the National Insulation Association, the average home loses more than 40% of its heat through the loft space and the walls of the house. Of this heat, more is lost through the walls than anything else - approximately 33% in an un-insulated home. Insulating your home can be one of the most cost effective and energy efficient measures which can save you up to £400 a year in a typical home. Cavity wall insulation is used to reduce heat loss through a cavity wall by filling the air space with a porous material which immobilises the air within the cavity.
Solar power is widely used across Europe with the largest concentration of PV systems being in Germany which has a climate similar to our own. Solar PV systems don't require direct sunlight to operate and will even work on cloudy days. Given the UK's location, it does mean that the performance of your photovoltaic system will be seasonal. This means you can expect to generate up to 6x's more energy in July than in December due to longer daylight hours during the summer months. This is a good thing as the generation of electricity you do not use, you can then sell back to the grid.
Solar thermal systems available today offer efficiency and reliability. They can be applied in different conditions to meet space- and water-heating requirements in the residential, commercial and industrial sectors. The development of these systems due to the unlimited supply of sunlight means they are a viable method for providing up to 80% of your homes domestic hot water and can also contribute to space heating. Solar thermal heating systems use free energy from the sun to warm domestic hot water.
