News - Yorkshire Heat Pumps

Today The Harrogate Advertiser features a short profile piece in the business pages about the growth of Yorkshire Heat Pumps as the move to renewable energy heating systems gathers pace in the area.

Yorkshire Heat Pumps has been trading for 18 months, and in that time has seen the interest in renewable energy heating grow and grow, thanks in no small part to the government's Renewable Heat Incentive scheme. This offers financial incentives to those switching from fossil fuel systems to greener alternatives.

As part of Stray FM's Love Local week, Michael Wright has been on the radio talking about all things renewable.

Yorkshire Heat Pumps reports a successful first year of trading and a busy few months ahead.

Michael Wright has been in the press again this week, talking to The Yorkshire Times about the incorporation of renewable heating technologies in barn refurbishments, and why this is the perfect time to consider renewables for your home.

The Department of Energy & Climate Change has announced figures at the end of the first month of domestic RHI, indicating a steady flow of applications and air source as the lead technology to date.

On 28th May the Department for Energy & Climate Change (DECC) announced some important changes to the non-domestic Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) Scheme, with the inclusion of air-to-water heat pumps and a big boost to the RHI tariff for ground source heat pumps.
