Solar and PV energy
Solar thermal systems can be used to heat the hot water in your home, drawing heat from the sun and directing this to a hot water cylinder in your airing cupboard.
Photovoltaic solar panels can be used to generate electricity, this could then be used to power your heat pump under the feed in tariff.
You can receive a payment for generating your renewable electricity. Any excess electricity produced can be 'sold' back to the grid.
A heat pump pump and solar combination can mean low environmental impact profitable energy.*
