Pure Green Energy
committed to Eco Island
The UK is committed to reducing it's
carbon output by 20% by 2020. If it
doesn't it may face huge fines.
At present the UK is bottom of the
European League and will only achieve
5%-16% by 2020. Sweden already achieves
40%.
The Government is looking to find ways
to speed up growth of renewable energy
outside the existing grid with incentives to
businesses and households.
This money will come from the energy
generators who will also be required to
produce a proportion of renewable energy
or face fines.
Such incentives for the public are likely
include a reduction in Stamp Duty and

114

households being able to sell back
surplus energy (The German System).
Grants for installation of renewable
energy systems will also be available.
Pure Green Energy is leading the
field in this area as a ‘one-stop’ shop
of renewable systems. This includes
air source heat pumps, conventional and
CO2, ground source heat pumps, Biomass
and Solar.
Pure Green Energy also has access to
complete of the latest technology through
its partners in anaerobic digester, wind
and wave power and recycling schemes.
Pure Green Energy is working with
central government advisors and local
government to look at sustainable

system in the public, private and
commercial sectors.
The company is well placed to give
an Eco Island lead to the UK on these
exciting developments over the coming
years.
