Renewable energy can play a key role in reducing carbon emissions from the built environment, and is required for most new build projects to achieve building regulations and planning requirements. Renewables are becoming increasingly popular as a retrofit option into existing buildings to take advantage of the introduction of the Feed-iIn Tariffs (FiTs) and the Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) to be launched soon.
