Overview –Renewables Policy in Kirklees –SunCities –Primrose Hill Solar Village –Renewables to tackle fuel poverty in Kirklees

Kirklees Renewable Energy Policy 1992 Friends of the Earth Climate Resolution New policy to reduce CO 2 by further 30% by 2020 Renewable Energy Fund New policy to provide 30% of energy needs from renewable sources in all new Council buildings by 2010/11

SunCities 301kWp 400 dwellings 4.9% of the total solar PV installed in the UK £1.8M external funding ~£500,000 funding from KMC

Primrose Hill – Retrofit 58 1kWp PV systems £50 per year savings 31 solar thermal systems 50 – 60% of household hot water Decent Homes work

Primrose Hill - New Build Yorkshire Housing Group 55 kWp on 31 new houses and 32 flats 50 tonnes of CO 2 avoided

Benefits for fuel poverty No cost ‘emergency’ cover Minimal disruption during installation Savings and making money i.e selling excess electricity Power to the people and some impact on energy use Eco Homes Standard, Part L Blding Regs

Renewables can be normal Relatively few problems reported Mostly a neutral response to the ‘look’ of PV Roof integrated design helped increase social acceptance Schools involvement Jobs and skills No interference with TV reception New tenants’ awareness low

Publicity Generates enquiries Raises awareness Raises profile in Kirklees
