Renewable Energy

Renewable energy:
• Energy obtained from sources that are inexhaustible, unlike fossil fuels, of which there is a finite supply.

Renewable sources of energy include biomass, solar, wind, wave, tidal, hydro and geothermal energy.

These forms of renewable energy can be harnessed to help domestic or commercial properties to reduce their fuel bills and make themselves more sustainable. If you require any advice or support it is available free from SKDT's community powerdown officer.
