Microgeneration and renewable energy

Microgeneration (whether it’s a solar panel, wind turbine or biomass boiler) looks increasingly attractive as energy prices rise, climate chaos threatens, and we rely on fewer countries to supply our oil and gas.

Wind, sun, and water are abundant and free sources of renewable energy. It just makes sense to use them to make your own heat and power.
