ZERO BILLS
By combining a home that uses minimal energy, with one that generates its own energy, you will have the opportunity to live in a home with zero energy bills.
Low energy requirements
A zero-carbon home can significantly reduce energy bills through several key features:
Smart home systems can optimize energy use by adjusting lighting, heating, and cooling based on occupancy and time of day. This ensures that energy is used only when needed
Overall, these features can lead to substantial savings on energy bills, making zero-carbon homes not only environmentally friendly but also cost-effective in the long run.
Energy Efficiency
Our homes are designed to use minimal energy for heating, cooling, and electricity. They can often include high-quality insulation, triple-glazed windows, and airtight construction to prevent heat loss
Renewable Energy Sources (click to expand)
Zero-carbon homes typically incorporate renewable energy technologies like solar panels and wind turbines. These systems generate electricity on-site, reducing the need to purchase energy from the grid
Advanced Heating & Cooling Systems
Many zero-carbon homes use energy-efficient systems such as heat pumps, which are more efficient than traditional heating methods. These systems can significantly lower the energy required to maintain a comfortable indoor temperature
Energy Storage
By using home batteries to store excess energy generated during the day, these homes can use stored energy during peak times or when renewable energy generation is low, further reducing reliance on the grid
Smart Technology
Smart home systems can optimize energy use by adjusting lighting, heating, and cooling based on occupancy and time of day. This ensures that energy is used only when needed
Overall, these features can lead to substantial savings on energy bills, making zero-carbon homes not only environmentally friendly but also cost-effective in the long run.
Renewable energy production of a home
We will provide the following:
- Air Source heat pumps
- Solar panels with battery provided in the price (most other developers only provide batteries at an extra cost)
- Energy efficient appliances
- Triple glazing
- Smart technology that controls the temperature of your home
- Electric vehicle charging points as standard
- Low energy lighting
- Grey water system to lower usage of water from the grid (non-drinking water such as toilet flush recycled from rainwater)
Qualify for octopus zero bills contract
The Octopus Zero Energy Bill is an innovative energy tariff designed to eliminate energy bills for five years for homes equipped with specific green technologies. Here’s how it works:
- Green Technology Installation: Homes need to be fitted with solar panels, a home battery, and a heat pump. These technologies generate and store renewable energy, reducing reliance on the grid.
- Energy Optimization: Octopus Energy uses advanced technology to optimize energy consumption and export. This means the system ensures that the energy generated by the solar panels is used efficiently, and any excess energy is sold back to the grid
- Zero Bills Guarantee: For homes that meet the required specifications, Octopus Energy guarantees zero energy bills for five years. This is achieved by balancing the energy produced and consumed, ensuring that the household’s energy needs are met without additional costs.
