A release of energy
Morris, Huw
A release of energy - 2007 - Planning (for the natural and built environment) (1718) 11 May 2007, 19-22(2) .
Discusses issues around the emerging technology of microgeneration technologies. Such technologies can be fitted to homes by householders. Energy efficiency results are considerable. Discusses the need to alter planning restrictions so that such technologies can be more readily fitted. Discusses each technology in detail. Wind turbines have the largest planning problem. Solar panels are less problematic but also require planning permission. Biomass requires an escape flue which may require more lax planning laws. Hydropower, heat pumps and CHP technologies are also covered.
