Technology Suitability Surveys

  • What difference could I make to my energy bills using technology?
  • What technology would benefit my property, and household’s needs, the most?
  • Is my property suitable for renewable technologies?
  • Is there funding to support?
  • Who can support my research?

To get started, the No.1 priority, is to have a Green Deal Assessment carried out by a qualified Green Deal Adviser. The result is a Green Deal Advice Report packed with facts on:

  • recommended improvements suitable for your property
  • indicative savings
  • suitable renewable technology options for consideration
  • the expected result on energy bills
  • and an indication of the tax-free income you could have via current incentives for having renewable technologies installed.

Shirley Paterson of nextGenergy is a qualified Green Deal Adviser, who carries out Green Deal Assessments, and advises on which technologies are best suited for your property.  nextGenergy can also support you with Technology Suitability Surveys – enhancing your research into which heat-generating technology options would be suitable for your property’s and household’s needs, and whether your property could be generating its own electricity. A Technology Suitability Survey can take place on the same survey visit as your Green Deal Assessment if requested at time of booking, which will be sufficient to provide meaningful data and a no obligation budget proposal for consideration, encompassing:

  • budget proposal for having a technology installed suitable for your property
  • any alternative technology to also consider
  • energy bill savings to expect
  • tax-free incentive earnings potential
  • return on investment to expect
  • advice about the funding available to support implementation
  • next steps
