Q: What do you see as the growth area for renewables?
The biggest growth area for renewables is undoubtedly in biomass and heat pumps. Incentives like domestic RHI are a great way to get people to explore alternative heating options, which may previously have been seen as too expensive or disruptive to install. When payback times cross the magic ‘under 10 years’ barrier, the products start to be viewed as a serious, cost-effective and environmentally friendly alternative to the regular condensing boiler.
