Introduction:

With rising energy prices, more and more people want to find out how they can invest in renewable energy technolgies for their properties. However, as recent media coverage has shown, it is possible to invest quite a lot of money in technologies that bear little fruit -- particularly if properties are in an urban situation.

This practical half-day seminar is designed to help you make good, informed decisions about renewable energy options for domestic buildings. You will get a detailed review of all the principal renewable energy technologies and how they apply at a domestic scale.

You are invited to bring details of your own property for a practical discussion of what you can achieve.

Who is it for?

Key points:

- investigation of all renewable energy technologies
- key features of each technology
- methods of calculating load and performance
- how to analyse any property for renewable energy potential
- typical purchase costs
