Welcome to Duncan Renewables

Duncan Renewables is a division of Duncan Plumbing Heating and Electrics, which has been serving domestic, commercial and community clients throughout Yorkshire for the past 20 years, and installing renewable energy systems for more than 15 years. In the rapidly growing renewable energy field, Duncan is a name you can trust.

Since 2010 we have installed well over 5 megawatts of Solar PV, with more than 500 individual systems and some of the largest installations in the North of England. Some of our work includes a 245kWp system at The Great Yorkshire Showground, 50kWp systems at Wetherby, Thirsk and Redcar Racecourses, a 50kWp system at Martin House Children’s Hospice, as well as many other large-scale agricultural and commercial installations (see our Case Study section for a comprehensive portfolio of the work we have completed).

With the introduction of the Renewable Heat Premium Payment and Renewable Heat Incentive in 2011, Duncan Renewables is now able to provide customers with an even broader range of financially attractive green technologies at both a domestic and commercial level including Biomass, Solar Thermal, and Heat Pumps.

We have already installed a number of large scale Biomass heating systems allowing customers to save money on their heating bills AND receive generous Renewable Heat Incentive payments.

With returns on investment typically around 20%, we already have many more biomass installations in the pipeline. We are expecting great things from this new and exciting renewable heat technology.

Why not come and visit our renewables showroom at our head office in Tockwith.
Current technologies on display include:

Collectively these technologies provide our offices with a renewable source of electric, heating and hot water.

  • 99.9 kW On-Roof Commercial Solar PV System

    "Our feed mill has an enormous requirement for power, so reducing our reliance on carbon based energy was, and still will be, a great priority for us. Having a huge area of redundant roof space also seemed to be a wasted asset and once the Government brought in the Feed-in tariff, fitting a PV system to the roof seemed to be the logical conclusion. We knew that beating the 1st August deadline was always going to be tough, and missing it would have reduced the return from the system, so we needed a contractor who had experience, but more importantly had plenty of skilled manpower….. they have been professional from the outset, have been responsive to all our concerns and shown great awareness of our priority to our customers and for health and safety while working on our busy site."

  • 100 kW Guntamatic Biomass System

    “The Guntamatic Biocom boiler will help us make significant savings compared to the oil heating system we were previously using. The boiler has been reliable, has only needed minor adjustments since its installation, and has helped us to provide a comfortable environment, not only for ourselves, but more importantly for our guests.”

  • 49.91kW On-Roof Commercial Solar PV System

    "As a Charity, relying almost entirely on charitable donations, reducing costs wherever we can is vital. In addition to this, we are keen to contribute to reducing our carbon footprint. The installation of solar panels has helped us do both. When we started looking at the feasibility of solar panels, Duncan Renewables provided invaluable help with their indepth knowledge and un-biased advice. When the decision was made to go ahead, they managed everything in relation to planning and registration of the system. Due to the nature of the work at Martin House, the installation needed to be carried out within a short space of time with as little intrusion as possible and this was done extremely well. We are very pleased with the result and look forward to the savings we will make on our electricity and the additional income from the tariff".

  • 245kW On-Roof Commercial Solar PV System

    “Operating in a sustainable way is very important to us. Being a year round exhibition centre we have a significant electricity requirement and installing solar panels was an obvious step we could take to reduce both our costs and our carbon footprint. The scale of the project was somewhat daunting but Duncan Renewables has done a first class job in managing the installation from the initial planning permission application right through to registering the system with OFGEM. Due to the number of events we hold here, there was a narrow window within which to complete the project but the team from Duncan Renewables worked efficiently to ensure that the system is up and running in time for The Great Yorkshire Show. We are delighted with the end result and look forward to enjoying the benefits over the next 25 years”.
