In 2010, photovoltaic roof panels on our properties generated 376,000 kWh of clean power (2009: 320,000 kWh), enough to run around 50 average homes for a year, saving almost 200 tonnes of carbon emissions.
Feed-in tariffs in Belgium, the Czech Republic, France, Germany and the UK now provide us with an additional incentive to lease roof space to energy suppliers or provide occupiers with access to renewable energy sources.
