Can I afford it? Grants and Loans available
The green Deal funding is no longer available. For details about ECO funding follow this linkIf you install an electricity generator, such as PV panels or a wind turbine, you can get a Feed In Tariff (FIT) for the electricity you generate - currently 12.9p/kWh - and still use your electricity generated for free. However by January 2016 this will be reduced to below 2p, so hurry!
In July, the government announced the Renewable Heat Incentive, which pays householders to install sustainable heating: Air Source heat Pumps, Ground Source heat Pumps, Solar thermal panels and Biomass. For details click here.
