Ownergy: Simple Guide to Renewable Energy Tariffs

02 July 2010

UK service provider of renewable energy systems, Ownergy, has launched an online ‘Simple Guide to Renewable Energy Tariffs.’

The guide encompasses the UK renewable energy feed-in tariff (FiT) and the Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI).

According to Ownergy, it describes in a simple and easily-digestible way what they are, how they work and how people could benefit.

The renewable energy tariff guide’s messages to users include:

  • The average household will be £2,000+ better off a year through the renewable energy tariffs;
  • The tariffs are for virtually everyone with a property – householders, businesses, landlords, schools, hospitals, entire communities, the list is endless...;
  • The tariffs put you in control of your energy;
  • By installing renewable energy systems and benefiting from the tariffs, you will make a significant contribution to environmental sustainability in the UK; and
  • It’s a lot easier to benefit from the tariffs than you might think!
