  1. Investment in energy efficient buildings reached £60bn in 2014

    Leave a Comment

    Total investments in the energy efficient buildings sector reached £60bn in 2014, a recent research report published by financial services firm Standard & Poor’s has been able to reveal.

    The interest in energy efficiency has also led to growth in bonds raised by companies such as Schneider Electric which issued €200 million in (£131m) green bonds last month, it states.

    The report reads that “Investors are becoming increasingly interested in low carbon investment opportunities – such as energy efficiency projects – which for their part are looking to attract financing.”

    However it adds energy efficiency projects like those in the building sector are “less established and still raise questions for investors about how they will be repaid and the credit risk they face”.

    In terms of implementing energy efficiency projects, wireless programmable thermostatic radiator valves offer the best ROIs and lowest overall installation costs. The HeatSave wireless TRVs enable users to set specific functioning times for each valve, and, since radiators are individually controlled, occupants are fully capable to maximise the zoning potential and reduce energy consumption in those areas that are not used for longer periods of time (as for example, dining or sitting rooms and kitchens during the night, etc.).

    Additionally, the HeatSave wireless thermostatic radiator valves also provide an automatic exercising feature when unused for 7 days, whose purpose is to minimise seizing of radiator valves in warmer months.

    All in all, the HeatSave TRVs enable users to achieve some pretty impressive savings, as they will help reduce your heating bills by up to 30%, especially when coupled with the HeatingSave Building Energy Management System.

    Scottish households have been able to save in excess of £9.8m over the past six months by switching electricity supplier, new figures released by the DECC have been able to reveal.

    The Department of Energy and Climate Change launched a campaign last month to encourage people to shop around when it comes to the energy market.

    It released data on Tuesday as part of the Power To Switch campaign, which revealed that 26,000 homes in Edinburgh saved around £1.8m while 30,000 Glasgow households saved some £2.1m.

    Energy Secretary Ed Davey said: “Switching puts money back in people’s pockets and, thanks to our reforms, thousands are taking advantage of cheaper deals and a more competitive market.

    “We want even more people to join the thousands who are switching and saving today.”

    If you’ve already chosen the lowest possible tariff from your favourite energy supplier and you are now looking at ways to cut your energy usage even more, then you should definitely take a good look at the HeatSave valves.

    In terms of affordable, yet effective energy saving measures, the HeatSave wireless thermostatic radiator valves are the easiest to install and most cost-effective energy-saving measures on the market. They are particularly suitable for retrofitting, since one simply has to remove the existing TRV and replace it with the HeatSave unit.

  3. British energy suppliers overcharge by £3.4billion a year

    Up to 14.3 million dual fuel customers of the Big Six energy suppliers are paying on average £235 too much each year, smaller supplier First Utility has recently claimed.

    It claimed that two-thirds of Big Six customers are on the most expensive tariffs. Customers can opt for fixed tariffs which are set for up to three years and provide price stability. But if a customer does not renew their fixed tariff they usually go automatically onto a standard variable tariff where the bill will reflect the ups and downs of market prices for energy.

    McCaig, CEO, First Utility said: “The UK energy industry has contrived to put itself in a situation where around two-thirds of its customers are on the most expensive energy tariff the industry has to offer, namely the ‘standard variable tariff’.

    “That simply can’t be right and is even more inexcusable in a climate where wholesale prices have been coming down.”

    While switching suppliers will certainly reduce one’s energy bills, the HeatSave wireless thermostatic radiator valves can do a lot more than that.

    The HeatSave thermostatic radiator valves are the easiest to install and most cost-effective and efficient energy management products on the market. They are particularly suitable for retrofitting, since one simply has to remove the existing TRV and replace it with the HeatSave unit.

    Remotely controlled via an easily-accessible web interface, the HeatSave valves enable users to achieve impressive savings, slashing one’s heating bills by up to 30%, especially when coupled with the HeatingSave Building Energy Management System.

    Leave a Comment

    A local council has revealed plans to launch a new scheme aimed at helping private home owners bolster their houses’ energy efficiency, a recent news report in the local business media has been able to reveal.

    Under their own Smart Homes scheme, Enfield Council offers government grants of up to 75% of costs towards energy improvements in homes to a maximum of £6,000. The grants are open to both owner occupiers, private tenants and private landlords.

    Smart Homes also supports other energy improvements highlighted in a Green Deal Assessment such as double glazing, secondary glazing and or energy efficient boilers. The project is being run by Haringey Council, working with the boroughs of Enfield, Camden, Hackney, Islington, and Waltham Forest, and will run until the 31 of March 2015.

    Wireless programmable thermostatic radiator valves offers the best returns in terms of energy efficiency. The HeatSave wireless TRVs enable users to set specific functioning times for each valve, and, since radiators are individually controlled, home owners are fully capable to maximise the zoning potential and reduce energy consumption in those areas that are not used for longer periods of time (as for example, dining or sitting rooms and kitchens during the night, etc.).

    Up to 11 million UK households could be over-spending on energy by not using appropriate heating controls, a relatively small investment that could potentially reduce running costs by 40%, recent research undertaken by Salford University has been able to reveal.

    The research undertaken by Salford University showed that a relatively small investment on heating controls could bring annual savings of around £290 per year for a typical household.

    Results showed that installing a room thermostat and full set of TRVs could reduce energy costs by 40% – much more than previously assumed – and the payback on the investment was typically between 9 and 18 months.

    Roderick Pettigrew, Chief Executive of the Building & Engineering Services Association (B&ES), comments: “Installing a room thermostat in one room and thermostatic radiator valves (TRVs) in all other rooms will maintain each room at the required temperature all year round and no heat is wasted by keeping rooms warmer than they need to be. By installing and using boiler heating controls correctly the boiler will run more efficiently and use less energy to maintain a comfortable temperature, resulting in lower energy bills. Households can start saving straightaway by adding controls to their existing system; heating controls can be fitted at any time – not just when replacing the boiler.”

    While a thermostat and TRVs will certainly help reduce energy bills, the HeatSave wireless thermostatic radiator valves could do a lot more than that.

    The HeatSave thermostatic radiator valves are the easiest to install and most cost-effective and efficient energy management products on the market. They are particularly suitable for retrofitting, since one simply has to remove the existing TRV and replace it with the HeatSave unit.

  6. Village hall set to implement energy saving measures after securing council grant

    Leave a Comment

    A village hall is set to cut its gas and electricity bills after implementing a range of energy saving measures using a grant secured from the local council, a news report in the local media has been able to reveal.

    Stevington Village Hall received the necessary funding from Bedford Borough Council under the Mayor’s Climate Change grant scheme.

    Under the scheme, community projects that would reduce carbon emissions within Bedford borough can win a grant which would award projects up to 50% match-funding of between £5k and £20k for improvements.

    Funding was granted to Stevington Hall to reduce the hall’s emissions and running costs by replacing the boilers and removing the electric showers, water heaters and electrical heating appliances. The single-glazed windows and doors were also replaced with double-glazed UPVC equivalents; reducing heat loss and meaning fewer draughts and cold spots. Both changing rooms at the village hall now also have radiator central heating and improved showers.

    The hall’s chairman Steve Cole, who applied for the grant on behalf of Stevington Parish Council, said: “I can now report that all the work has been completed, improving the hall’s domestic water system immensely and providing much better control of our central heating system. It has given the village hall a new lease of life! We are looking forward to having reduced energy bills which means we can put more money into running community events.”

    While new boilers and double-glazed UPVC windows will certainly help drive down energy consumption, the HeatSave thermostatic radiator valves could help village halls attain even more impressive savings, since facilities managers will be able to thoroughly control each radiator in the building.

    The HeatSave wireless thermostatic radiator valves are the easiest to install and most cost-effective energy-saving measures on the market. They are particularly suitable for retrofitting, since one simply has to remove the existing TRV and replace it with the HeatSave unit.

    A local council has proved extremely successful in cutting carbon in its buildings, vehicles and street lights, a recent news report on the matter has been able to reveal.

    The North Tyneside Council has reduced its carbon consumptions by 15 per cent in the past four years and is well on track to realise its target of a 34 per cent reduction in its carbon footprint by 2015-16.

    The council has embarked on a number of major investment schemes to cut energy use, this includes; installing LED lighting in public buildings, investment in ‘dimming and trimming’ street lighting and improving energy efficiency in its schools, leisure centres and sheltered accommodation.

    It has also worked in partnership with other agencies to reduce the borough’s carbon footprint, including North Tyneside Warm Zone which has insulated over 16,000 homes saving residents £2.3m a year on fuel bills and approximately 395,000 tonnes of carbon over the next 40 years.

  8. Average UK household will spend around £60,000 on energy bills over a lifetime

    Leave a Comment

    UK home owners will spend around £60,000 on energy bills over a lifetime, recent analysis published today by uSwitch.com was able to reveal.

    The survey also found that households could save around £10,000 over a lifetime or £228 annually by switching to more competitive tariffs.

    Over a third (37%) of people surveyed said they would use the savings towards a rainy day fund, 23% would pay off their debts and a fifth (21%) would put it towards the cost of a holiday.

    Energy UK which represents energy suppliers responded by saying: “Make it your New Year’s resolution to make sure you are on the best deal – click, call and switch in 2015 to keep household bills as low as possible. Over three million people switched last year and with more than twenty-five energy companies to choose from there are great deals to be had.”

    While switching suppliers is certainly a noteworthy idea, the truth of the matter is that implementing an energy management system designed to help you control each radiator in your house individually will drive down your bills even more (by at least 20 to 30 percent).

    If you’re looking for a sure-fire solution designed to slash energy spending by controlling each radiator in your house separately, then the HeatSave thermostatic radiator valves are the perfect tools for this job.

    The HeatSave thermostatic radiator valves are the easiest to install and most cost-effective and efficient energy management products on the market. They are particularly suitable for retrofitting, since one simply has to remove the existing TRV and replace it with the HeatSave unit.

    A system designed to help home owners reduce their energy spending, while in the same time maintaining a very comfortable temperature throughout the home could actually be the secret to a happy and fulfilling marriage, a recent survey was able to reveal.

    Research has revealed that 55 per cent of Britons admit to arguing over the temperature at home, while 35 per cent people participating in the survey say that they never agree with their partner on what the ambient temperature should be.

    Calculated from a mean average of the ideal temperature from a sample of both men and women, the findings show that 22 degrees is indeed the optimum temperature to keep both sexes happy.

  10. Efficient energy management could help save ‘save £500m a year’

    Leave a Comment

    British households could save in excess of £500 million a year by taking active control of their heating, a recent report by the Energy Saving Trust (EST) was able to reveal.

    Unfortunately, British householders are not using their heating control systems in an optimum manner. In fact, although 78% of consumers surveyed by the EST claim to understand how to use their heating, half of them are actually incorrectly using the controls.

    Findings published by the EST also suggest that nearly 40% of Brits believe it’s more efficient to leave the heating on all the time, more than a third (35%) turn up their room thermostat when they want the room to heat up quicker and nearly a third (31%) leave their water heating on all the time to make sure they never run out.

    All of the above are simple myths, which, however, tend to bring about unnecessary additions to one’s energy bills. Philip Sellwood, Chief Executive of EST said: “Rightfully, millions of householders are confused by their heating controls because, let’s be honest, it is a bit of a minefield. There are plenty of myths out there and it’s no wonder people aren’t getting it right.”

    If you’re looking for a solution to bust the aforementioned myths and slash energy spending by controlling each radiator in your house separately, then the HeatSave thermostatic radiator valves are the perfect tools for this job.

    The HeatSave thermostatic radiator valves are the easiest to install and most cost-effective and efficient energy management products on the market. They are particularly suitable for retrofitting, since one simply has to remove the existing TRV and replace it with the HeatSave unit.
