Energy Efficient Upgrades
You don’t need to buy a new home to enjoy the benefits of energy-efficient living. Upgrades can include installing energy-efficient windows, upgrading insulation, or replacing old heating and cooling systems with more efficient models.
Consider these effective solutions:
– Insulation: Ceiling, Walls and Underfloor
– LED lights: Save 80% of your energy per light by changing over Halogen to LED
– Double or Triple Glazing: Don’t let your heat escape through thin glass windows
– Hot Water Units: Change your gas or electric hot water units to either solar or heat pumps
Solar Installations
Solar energy is one of the most effective ways to reduce your carbon footprint and lower your energy costs. Some lenders provide discounted interest rates for loans used to install solar panels.
Solar Battery Installations
Installing batteries for a solar system provides several benefits, one of the most significant being energy independence. By storing surplus solar energy produced during the day, batteries allow you to use that energy at night or during power outages. This reduces reliance on the grid, offering a consistent power supply and potentially significant savings on energy costs.
Financial Benefits
Lower interest rates mean you pay less over the life of your loan. Coupled with reduced energy bills, the savings can be substantial.
Environmental Impact
By making energy-efficient choices, you contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and conserving natural resources.
Increased Home Value
Energy-efficient homes and upgrades can increase the market value of your property, making it a smart investment for the future.
Government Incentives
In many regions, additional government incentives and rebates are available for energy-efficient homes and renewable energy installations, further enhancing your savings.
