[gareth]

Trying to control the power of nature is becoming increasingly popular as homeowners look for sustainable solutions to reduce energy use and carbon footprint. Intended to guide the new Renewable Energy and historic building - Microgeneration Installation has been published by Cadw, the Welsh Assembly Government's historic environment service, is to raise awareness of the variety of opportunities and solutions available to owners wishing to install micro system produced in a historic building, conservation area, historic garden or park, ancient monument or archaeological site. The guide was launched by the Heritage Minister Alun Ffred Jones on stand Cadw Welsh Agricultural Show.

Microgeneration is the way to produce heat, electricity (or both) of small-scale low carbon source. Many of today's technologies such as photovoltaics, heat pumps, biomass and hydroelectric uses renewable sources, like wind and solar power, while others continue to use fossil fuels, in a more effective way. There is no reason why owners of historic buildings should not consider these technologies but must consider the protection of the character of the building or landscape as well as design and location of the micro-generation systems. The book suggests key points to consider as well as owners of relevant links for further information.

Keep experimenting with plans microgynhyrhu itself and hope that many of its sites are able to meet local energy needs. Currently there is a large program of low energy LED light installation is carried out at Cadw sites and consequently there are significant reductions in electricity costs is ready and will reduce the impact of Keep on the environment over time.

Hmm works quite well, a few mistakes, but you will never get a perfect automatic translation.

Going to buy this now.
