You can use the online tool on the Energy Saving Trust's site to help you identify which home energy generation technologies might be suitable for your own home. So, if you are wondering if solar PV panels, heat pumps, wind turbines etc are the best option, check out this tool. You enter details about what kind of property you have (including rooms and age of property) and details about your current type of heating etc. You then answer a series of questions about space for the various technologies. The tool then comes up with a list of potentially suitable technologies for your property. You can then find out more about each one. The tool also has links to various grants that you may eligible for. Don't forget hat the main site has a wealth of information on saving energy. Visit http://www.energysavingtrust.org.uk/
