A good way to decide on whether a biomass boiler is a good investment for your Lincolnshire, Derbyshire or Yorkshire home is to seek advice on the Renewable Heat Incentive, or even use a Renewable Heat Incentive calculator to assess the payback on your investment.

As biomass installer in Derbyshire, Lincolnshire and Yorkshire, we have developed a Renewable Heat Incentive calculator which will be able to help you to calculate how much more you will receive in the future by investing in a biomass boiler in your home or business.

The Renewable Heat Incentive was launched in November 2011 and provides monetary assistance to those who decide to invest in renewable heating technologies. Of course, this includes biomass boilers, as the RHI provides payout for this type of renewable heating. Both domestic and commercial properties can receive payments from the government upon adoption of a renewable heat technology such as a biomass boiler, and using a RHI calculator is a great tool to see what you may be able to save and earn in the future.

The RHI is run by Ofgem, who are the regulators of the gas and electricity markets in Great Britain. Ofgem make the payments to the home or business owner and manage the application process. The RHI payments are made from a pool of funds which have been allocated by the government to be used from the treasury.

A number of types of heating can be covered by the Renewable Heat Incentive Scheme including ground source heat pumps, air source heat pumps, water source heat pumps, solar thermal hot water and biomethane and biogas. Biomass is also covered by the Renewable Heat Incentive; therefore a RHI calculator can be used to calculate the payments that will be made from the government for adopting the renewable heating technology.

You can calculate how much you are likely to earn from the Renewable Heat Incentive by using a RHI Calculator, which will give you an approximate amount of money that you are entitled to in payments from the government. As biomass installers in Lincolnshire, Yorkshire and Derbyshire, we have seen a great many individuals, homes and businesses benefit from the installation of a biomass boiler and we believe that a RHI calculator is useful tool to help you to find out what the financial benefits of biomass boilers are.
