Renewable Energy - How does it affect you?

Today, renewable energy and sustainability are becoming ever more important things for all people to use. Whether for personal use, businesses, schools and many other sectors, all are being encouraged to become sustainable.

With so much advice and encouragement to use renewable energy, where do you begin?

There are a number of options available for renewable energy:

• PV (Solar Paenls)
• Wind Power
• Hydro Electric
• And many more

There are a number of options out there and one of them is sure to fit you. However, SKYShades (UK) Ltd have an exciting new product available.

Inside2Outside Ltd have combined with SKYShades Int'l. to form SKYShades (UK) Ltd. SKYShades are a worldwide tensile membrane manufacturer and installer, and have been ivolved in some huge projects, including the Burj Al Arab hotel in Dubai.

SKYShades have the worldwide eclusive license from Konarka for putting OPV (Organic photovoltaics) on tensile membrane material. OPV is the 3rd generation of solar power panels, and it is more suited to the UK climate than traditional silicon PV panels.

What sets OPV apart from traditioanl PV solar panels?

• OPV relies on daylight rather than direct sunlight to generate power, thus it can face north, south, east or west and sitll generate significant energy
• OPV is lightweight and flexible, thus it will not damage a buildings sructural integrity and can be placed accross the entire roof of a building
• OPV works better as it gets hotter rather than decreasing in performance

The list of benefits goes on and on.

You can get OPV put over the roof, or you could have the OPV on top of a canopy. Then not only would you get the benefits of a canopy, but also source for renewable energy. What's more, the Government have introduced feed-in-tariff's and will pay you a set feee for a number of years per amount of electricity you generate.
