Scotland

Scotland, through a number of regional agencies, provides very active support for renewable energy projects, including small wind. Scotland also has more excellent locations for small wind turbines than any other part of the UK. Segen is a full member of Scottish Renewables and is fully accredited under the Scottish Community and Households Initiative for grants.

Segen technologies of solar PV, micro wind and micro hydro are all supported by the scheme and are fully accredited for grants in Scotland.  For further information contact http://www.energysavingtrust.org.uk/schri/household/grant.cfm

Farmers and other rural businesses may also qualify for a grant of up to 40% for a renewable energy system under the Scotland Rural Development Programme. This could typically provide £20,000 for the purchase of a Gaia turbine or £10,000 for an Evance from Segen.

Please view our Small Wind page to see what products and services we can offer in Scotland, including the Evance R9000 and Gaia 133.

If you are new to small wind turbines, please start by reading our Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) pages, as those form a complete guide to wind resource and wind turbine siting.

To find out what the average wind speed is for your own location, please use our free wind speed checker to look up the wind speed for your postcode.

For further information on installing a small wind turbine in Scotland see the Scottish Renewables and the Scottish Community and Households Initiative web sites and read the Scottish Executive's Planning Guidance for renewable energy.

Segen also provides a range of roof and ground mounted Solar PV Systems, which may be attractive if you do not have sufficient wind or space to make a small wind turbine viable and Micro-hydro Systems for the conversion of mills and other applications.
