Renewable heat - Proposals due in October Spending Review
In the new government's first Annual Energy Statement, The Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) confirms that it will "set out detailed proposals for taking forward the government's commitment to renewable heat through the Spending Review" - in other words,meaning those awaiting an announcement on the Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) will have to wait until October.
For more information about renewable energy and RHI, speak to John Findlay of Carbon Zero Consulting on 0844 855 0115 or email him at (JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)
Reneable Heat Incentive - why no news from the government?
Carbon Zero Consulting cannot understand why the coalition government continues to dither on the fate of the renewable heat incentive (RHI)!
If the UK is to achieve its 12% renewable heat and CO2 emission reduction objectives then introducing the RHI in 2011 is imperative!
We understand there is likely to be another round of consultation. If this is the case then firm details and dates would be welcome!

Ground source heating - proven thermal testing
Carbon Zero Consulting are now providing an exclusive service to measure in-situ soil thermal conductivity for horizontal ground loop design. New to the UK, this test will give provide accurate data for the installation of ground source heating.
Our service will measure thermal conductivity with a highly accurate and sensitive probe placed to a depth of up to 1.5m; the normal ground loop installation depth.
Calculations based on the measured data will provide an accurate value of thermal conductivity; allowing the area of ground array to be designed with complete confidence.
For details of our service options and costs, please give us a call on 0844 855 0115 or email John Findlay on (JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)
Renewable Heat Incentive - No mention in the budget
Carbon Zero Consulting has written to Jessica Lee, Conservative MP for Erewash to ask for her support for the Renewable Heat Incentive. Whilst indicating overall support for taking renewable energy further, the new Government has so far remained silent on the question of whether or not it will proceed with the Renewable Heat Incentive in the form consulted-on prior to the election.
