The Initiative
The Blewbury Energy Initiative
aims to reduce energy consumption in buildings in Blewbury, and to encourage
the use of renewable energy resources. We hope to reduce
the amount of coal, oil, gas and electricity used, and to help the global
environment.
Latest news
The Department of Energy
and Climate Change plans to introduce
a substantial programme of feed-in tariffs for small-scale electricity generation
in April. This aims to encourage installation
of renewable technologies:
solar photovoltaic panels, small wind turbines, small-scale hydro, etc. We
will have full details on our domestic
generation page as soon as they are confirmed.
The scrappage scheme for inefficient old boilers is described
in our section on grants for energy improvements;
it is run by the Energy Saving
Trust.
