Refurbishment of 1895 Property – Renewable Heating Upgrade

During the refurbishment of this 1895 property, the owner explored renewable energy options with the aim of reducing their carbon footprint, despite the property already having access to mains gas.

Global Energy Systems installed a 10kW Thurso air source heat pump, providing an efficient, low-carbon heating solution for the home. The system is designed to deliver reliable performance while significantly improving overall energy efficiency.

The owner is also considering the future addition of solar PV panels, which would allow the property to generate its own electricity and further reduce running costs by powering the heat pump with renewable energy.

The installation is expected to achieve annual savings of £1,647, demonstrating the financial and environmental benefits of transitioning to renewable heating, even in properties connected to the gas grid.
