Plumb Center takes renewable energy on the road

Plumb Center, renewable energy

Plumb Center is taking its renewables roadshow to six strategically selected locations during September. Visitors will have the opportunity to interact with dozens of exhibiting manu­facturers, merchants and professional bodies. There will also be four theatre areas providing demonstrations of domestic and non-domestic technologies, explanations of grants, legislation and regulations and also explanations of qualifications and providers.

This renewables roadshow will be targeting visitors that purchase or have a direct influence on the procurement of renewable technologies — from sole-trader installers to large contractors, and everything in between.

Technologies on display will include air-source heat pumps, ground-source heat pumps, solar PV, solar thermal, heat and water efficient technologies, energy-management systems, biomass, grey-water recycling, rainwater harvesting and much more.

The roadshow will visit Bolton (6 September), Coventry (8), Cheltenham (13), Wembley Stadium, London (15), Harrogate(20) and Glasgow(22).
