Sustainable Homes: Building for the Future with SPC Heat Cloud

Oct 1, 2024 | Post

The future of homebuilding is looking greener, more efficient, and better for your wallet. Recent research from The MCS Foundation has shown that integrating renewable energy solutions into new builds can bring significant financial and environmental benefits.

By incorporating solar panels, heat pumps, high-grade insulation, and battery storage, homeowners can save an average of £1,300 per year on energy bills. Throughout a 25-year mortgage, these savings total more than £46,000.

Energy Efficiency and Long-Term Savings

The research revealed that homes with a combination of solar panels and heat pumps enjoy energy bills that are three times lower than homes using heat pumps alone. This illustrates the importance of using multiple renewable energy sources to drive down costs even further.

With the UK government currently considering mandates to include these technologies in all new builds, sustainable homes could become the new standard – reducing energy costs, cutting carbon emissions, and contributing to a Net Zero future.

While the upfront cost of integrating renewable technologies into new homes is estimated at around £5,000, the long-term savings make it a small price to pay. This investment not only reduces household energy bills but also significantly lowers the home’s carbon footprint, making it a win for both homeowners and the environment.

Why SPC Heat Cloud is the Perfect Fit for Sustainable Homes

At SPC, we are proud to support the shift towards sustainable living with our Heat Cloud LTHW radiant heating and cooling panels. Our Heat Cloud panels are specifically designed to work seamlessly with heat pumps, making them the most compatible heat emitters for energy-efficient homes.

Heat pumps operate most efficiently at lower flow temperatures, and Heat Cloud’s low-temperature water (LTHW) system ensures that energy usage is optimised. This results in higher energy savings while providing effective, consistent heating and cooling.
