What changes have been made:

2008 Fitted B&Q wind turbine April 2008, removed Aug 2009.
2010 Replaced oil boiler with Clearview Log stove in kitchen plus solar thermal plus thermal store. Retro fitted back boilers to both log stoves and piped into the thermal store. Under RHI grant
2011 Fitted 4kw PV on roof. Including Immersun smart switch for the immersion heater. Started receiving maximum feed in tariff.
2015 Fitted direct electric water heater to the CH system to use if we were unable or too old to burn the log stoves.
So at that point. in the summer, hot water came from the solar PV and solar thermal. In the winter heating and hot water came from the 2 log stoves. Backed up by direct electric, only used occasionally, very expensive to run!!

2020 Aug fitted 4kW energy storage batteries (half price deal with Ecotricity)
2021 Fitted heat pump for the central heating only. Removed the direct electric water heater. RHI grant. Continue with solar and log stoves for hot water.
