electricity from sun and wind
Electricity costs are likely to rise substantially over the next ten years. At the same time the incidence of power cuts is also likely to increase. The technology for using the sun and the wind to provide an alternative source of power is developing quickly and we have provided our three town houses at Great Bow Yard with ducting for photovoltaic panels to provide up to 1.5kw of power to each house. We have also made provision for adding a domestic scale wind turbine to supplement the sun's energy over the winter months. The panels can be mounted on the South facing roof planes with special DC cable linking direct to a specialist meter.
