Welcome to In Balance Energy: Specialist Suppliers and Installers of Renewable Energy Systems.
On the following pages you will find information about Solar Electricity, Solar Hot Water, Wind Turbines, Eco Boilers and Natural Installation. Enjoy the site and if you would like further information or have any questions that we can help answer then please contact us.
Solar Electric Photovoltaic (PV) Systems capture the suns energy and convert it into usable electric power.
In this section you will find further information explaining how Solar PV systems work, what equipment is needed, how we can help you to design and install the right system and quantify the benefits to both your pocket and the environment in doing so.
A Solar Thermal system uses the suns energy to heat water instead of traditional boilers avoiding the need to use expensive fuels such as oil or gas.
In this section we explian how a Solar Thermal system works, we look at the different pieces of equipment that complete the system and how we can help design and install the right system for you.
A Building Integrated Solar PV or Solar Thermal system is designed to integrate with a buildings existing fabric. Especially relevent for buildings in conservation areas, corporate offices and clients with distinctive homes who may be concerned with how a Solar installation could affect the look of their property.
In this section we look at some of the solutions we offer including Solar roof tiles and Solar slates, Solar skylights, even complete solar walls and solutions for apartment balconies.
Wind Turbines located in the right position are capable of generating significant amounts of electrical power making them ideal in both off-grid situations and for profitable energy wind farms.
In this section we look at the technology behind wind turbines, what equipment is needed and how to go about getting wind turbines installed including planning permission and installation considerations.
Eco Boilers, Stoves and Fires naturally complement other renewable energy systems such as Solar in the winter months and are also able to generate significant amounts of heat and power as stand alone systems, replacing traditional gas, coal and oil fired systems with a sustainable alternative.
In this section we look at the different technologies available and consider the benefits of each.
Natural Insulation is used as a direct replacement for energy hungy (in their manufacture) insulation materials. In most cases good insulation is the simplest, cheapest and easiest way to reduce fuel costs and reduce the impact you have on the environment through needing to use less energy to heat your home.
In this section we look at the differnt materials that are available, considering the costs, suitabilty and benefits of each.
We specialise in designing and installing custom built and bespoke systems. Wether you have an unusual property, are considering combining a number of different technologies or the right solution for you simply cannot be bought off the shelf, we can help.
In this section we look at how different technologies can be installed to complement each other to form what we call 'Total Energy' systems and outline some of the ways some not so well known technologies can be used in difficult or unusual situations.
Our team of qualified renewable energy engineers have backgrounds in multiple disciplines such as plumbing, electrics, roofing and IT. Our biggest advert is the quality of our work which we take great pride in.
In this section we look at the methods and procedures we follow, we also look at typical installations for the different technologies outlining the time and steps taken to ensure that our clients know what to expect and that everything runs smoothly.
Central Government, Local Authorities and various other organisation have realised the positive impact that renewable energy systems can have on our environment and economy. There are various schemes and grants both locally and nationally that you can take advantage of to subsidise part of your renewable energy installation.
In this section we talk through the different schemes we work with, outlining the steps that our clients need to take in order to get these benefits.
