Landlords from across the East Riding, Hull, North Lincolnshire and North East Lincolnshire are to be offered the opportunity to receive free impartial advice from experts on how to make money by producing green energy.
Installing renewable energy technologies, such as solar panels, is not only good for the environment, but it can also be an investment. Under the Government’s Feed-in-Tariff scheme, a typical three-bedroom property with a two kilowatt solar panel installation could earn around £800 per annum, as well as make an £120 per annum saving on fuel bills. Payments are made to the property’s owner for 25 years, paying off the initial installation costs and providing a guaranteed income for the future.
At the event, to be held on Thursday January 27th 2011, interested landlords will be given information on the Government’s incentives, what renewable technologies are on the market and easy ways to make properties more energy efficient.
Organised by the Humber Housing Partnership in association with the Energy Saving Trust, the half day event, at the Rope Walk in Barton-upon-Humber, is free to attend and will run from 9.30am to 12.30pm, followed by a buffet lunch.
“We want as many landlords as possible in the Humber to benefit from the Government’s incentives ” said Councillor Jane Evison, Chair of the Humber Housing Partnership. “This event will provide an opportunity for local landlords to put questions to experts and find out what they need to consider before installing renewable energy technologies”
If you are a landlord and are interested in attending this event or would like more information contact Matt Lewer on 01482 396115 or at matt.lewer@eastriding.gov.uk. Spaces are limited so book early to avoid disappointment.
