New iiE event for North Yorkshire businesses: Renewables: the business case for microgeneration

Renewables: the business case for microgeneration

Would you like to cut your energy bills and protect your business from rising energy costs?  Do you know how to improve your green credentials and stand out from the crowd?  Are you up to date with the latest information about government incentives for renewable energy?

Improving your business energy-efficiency through considered capital investments makes good environmental AND business sense.  In an economic climate where there is increased pressure to control costs and with energy prices set to rise even further, the benefits of focusing on energy consumption in the workplace have never been greater.  With accurately forecasted pay back periods, a well planned investment in renewable technologies can give you the ability to reduce costs in the long and short term and make your business greener in the process, all leading to increased competitive edge.

Our latest seminar, hosted by Investors in the Environment, will provide an overview of the technologies available, including projected costs and suitability before highlighting industry trends and the latest developments with the Feed in Tariffs, the Renewable Heat Incentive and the Green Deal.
