DDEA Ltd based in Devizes are specialists in the design and installation of renewable energy systems. Started in 2007 IDDEA Ltd has grown quickly and has established itself as the area’s leading renewable energy experts. Based on Hopton Industrial Estate in Devizes the company now has 2 units, one serving Solar PV and administration and the other for renewable heating and wind turbines.

2013 is shaping up to be an exciting year for the company, with new technologies on offer. IDDEA Ltd are building on their excellent reputation for the design and installation of Solar PV (panels for electrical generation) systems and are now pleased to be installing Solar Thermal hot water systems, Biomass heating for domestic and commercial buildings, Intelligent heating controls and also Small Scale Wind Turbines.

IDDEA Ltd will only use its own experienced and qualified team to install your system; they are so confident in the quality of work they can offer up to 10 years guarantee on workmanship.

Solar PV – domestic and commercial: Despite the recent reductions in the government backed Feed in Tariff (money paid per unit of electricity generated), Solar PV still is a very attractive proposition for householders and businesses alike. The systems cost much less than people think, the cost of the products has plummeted over recent months. With returns on your investment of around 11%, this is much better than any bank / building society. The systems will become even more valuable as electricity price continue to rise by at least 6% per year. All systems use quality branded components and a 10 year installer warranty is available on all domestic installations. Call IDDEA Ltd for a no obligation site survey.

Biomass Heating: Oil fired heating? Ever rising and inconsistent oil prices makes alternative fuel sources a viable proposition. Biomass fuels can be half the cost of oil; and the Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) can turn a simple boiler replacement into an attractive investment opportunity.

Currently only commercial and district heating systems (multiple homes connected to a single boiler) qualify for the RHI, plans for the domestic scheme are due to be published imminently. A biomass boiler can run on a range of fuel from Logs to pellets, these fuels can be sourced from as close as Corsham.

Wind Generators: A suitably located wind generator can achieve excellent returns on your investment. IDDEA Ltd install the Evance R9000 (www.evancewind.com) a 5kw turbine that is designed and made in Britain. Suitable for farms and small holdings or those with a large garden. Big savings can be made on your electricity bills and carbon emissions.

A government tariff is also available for the electricity generated.

Solar Thermal: Solar water heating systems can generate between 50-60% of your annual hot water through a panel which is often installed on the roof of your property. It will reduce your energy bills significantly.

A solar water heating system will provide you with hot water throughout the year and can be backed up by a boiler or immersion heater in the colder months when there is not as much sunlight. It is expected that there will be a government tariff available on domestic solar thermal systems later this year.

IDDEA work with a number of local well respected firms, including Gaiger Brothers: “Gaiger Brothers have used IDDEA Ltd to design and install a number of Solar PV systems for us, both on a domestic and commercial scale. We find their professionalism and attention to detail second to none” - Sam Gaiger – Gaiger Brothers IDDEA is a registered MCS installer, also members of REAL, HETAS, and NAPIT.
