Buying a small wind turbine can be an effective option for schools, businesses and homes wanting to invest in renewable energy. Some of the potential benefits include reducing or eliminating electricity bills, reducing carbon emissions, increasing your security of energy supply and providing an income from the sale of ROCs and surplus electricity.
Wind turbines for farms
A wind turbine can provide power for both farm and domestic use, reducing energy bills, as well as providing an extra income from selling surplus electricity to the grid and through the government carbon credits scheme (ROCs).
Wind turbines for schools and colleges
Having a wind turbine brings educational and environmental benefits to a school. The Low Carbon Buildings Program pays up to 50% of the installation costs and Greenthinking may be able to source additional funding.
