Global Rising Prices see Renewable Energy Sources Become More Cost Effective.

26 August 2008 - MillAquia can help...

There’s no doubt that businesses especially need to look at reducing their energy bills, particularly after the last hikes in costs.  MillAquia Leisure & Energy, at Matford, Marsh Barton are able to help both the commercial and large domestic users of energy with a number of different options, according to specific requirements.

Whether you are a hotel, guest house, office block, hospital, school or farm, there are easy options now to save money and feed excess power back into the grid.  Most of us have taken on board the need to reduce our carbon footprint as individuals and are considering environmentally friendly alternatives to energy consumption, but the rising costs on our energy bills is bringing this to the forefront of everyone’s agenda. .

Wind Turbines are very effective in the South West because of the amount of wind we get and our hilly terrain. The wind turbines we provide are from an established manufacturer that has been in the business for 30 years, based in Holland, where they have been using wind technology before the rest of the world had even heard of it.  The turbines are much quieter now and have a 20 year + life expectancy.  They have also been tested in 100mph+ winds in the Outer Hebrides and on oil rigs in the North Sea and in Siberia – so they have been put through their paces!  They have a 5 year guarantee..

The flat solar panels are designed so that they can be ‘hidden’ by being built into a roof, to resemble a sky light, or mounted to form a balustrade to a balcony.  With enough energy striking the earth in one hour to meet the planet’s energy needs for an entire year, the solar systems use highly efficient triple-coated vacuum tube collectors which converts up to 96% of the energy captured..

Checking voltage for correct specifications is both important and can save you hundreds of pounds.  If you find your small electrical appliances failing quite regularly, your voltage coming into your property is likely to be too high, so not are you just using extra wasted energy, you are also shortening the life of your electrical appliances.  Voltage regulators are therefore a good investment..

“Reducing energy demands has also been one of our highest priorities when specifying in the swimming pool side of our business, with many of our customers turning to renewable energy sources. All we now need is further legislation, easier planning laws and tax incentives from the Government and we will be on our way to significantly reducing our carbon emissions and dependence on other countries for our energy.”.

MillAquia Leisure & Energy provides a range of products from flat solar panels and evacuated solar heating tubes, through to water turbines, wind turbines and voltage regulators.  We will provide an assessment of the site suitability, help you with your planning permission and grid connection permission and basically make the move over to renewable energy a hassle free experience for you..
