Although it might be a couple of years before I begin building, I am currently looking into things to try to save on energy costs due to the alarming rises seen recently.
I have read many reports on the solar panels and geothermal heating, and there seems to be various pro's and con's of both. There seems to be a high installation cost and very gradual returns on them, although in the long term they would probably pay for themselves?
Has anybody installed solar panels as an add-on to their property?
Has anybody got a few years experience of geothermal heating?
Does anybody use a wind turbine? If so, what do they cost and what savings can they provide?
Any feedback welcomed.
