Second Year at the Yorkshire Agricultural Show!

Duncan Renewables will be exhibiting at the Yorkshire Agricultural Machinery Show (YAMS) which will be held at the York Auction Centre, Wednesday 4th February 2015.

Now in its second year, the first YAMS had a huge impact on the farming calendar and attracted 100 trade exhibitors and thousands of farmers and visitors. This year’s YAMS is already set to be bigger with 145 confirmed exhibitors showcasing an array of all the latest machinery and equipment for agriculture, horticulture, ground care and forestry.

Our solar PV installation on the York Auction Centre roof is a prime example of how you could make the most of spare land or roof space with solar PV. Our solar team will be available throughout the show to discuss how solar could both save and make you money. Our biomass experts will also be on Stand MK1 discussing the benefits of biomass to the agriculture industry.

With free entry and parking, there are no excuses for not visiting! The Duncan Renewables’ team are looking forward to discussing renewables from 8am to 4.30pm on Stand MK1, do come and pay us a visit!

Category Current RateRate from 1st January 2015

Regarding the Commercial RHI scheme, the tariff for Small Commercial Biomass will be reduced by 10%.

Renewable Energy Exchange - Newcastle!

Following on from our sell out success at Renewable Energy Exchange (REX) Yorkshire in Harrogate earlier this month, we’re attending the North East next event at Newcastle Racecourse, Gosforth Park on Thursday 20th November.

Just to recap, REX events are ideal for landowners, farmers, businesses, schools and all others looking to invest in renewable projects and take advantage of the Feed-in Tariff and the Renewable Heat Incentive schemes.

This networking event creates a market-place that enables those interested in investing in renewable technologies to have a series of pre-arranged appointments with potential suppliers and attend a programme of roundtable discussion groups.

Buyers can then review their options and make well-informed decisions as to the best technology to use and the right installer to work with.

On the run-up to the event, buyers go online and select the individuals whom they would like to have an appointment with.

All meetings are then pre-arranged and scheduled on the basis of mutual interest. This service is now LIVE!

Phil Blair will be hosting a roundtable discussion on Solar PV:

10:30 – 11:20 Solar PV – commercial installations explained...
