It's already a luxury resort, but it now boasts the largest passive, solar-thermal hot water installation on the Island And yesterday Tucker's Point Club House was commended for turning to renewable energy in order to produce hot water.

The recent announcement from BELCo that they are ready to move ahead with Net-metering was welcomed by Greenrock. There has been much discussion of this issue in public and it is good to finally see some activity and the legal framework coming into place to allow us to contribute to the environment in a positive way.
You will be allowed to install a system of up to 10KW on this price basis. A 10KW system is enough for an average family home (you would generate approx 1000-1500 Kwh/month). On this basis, you would be able to repay your investment in renewable technology a 7-10 years and could then expect to receive free electricity for a further 15+ years from this point, as well as reducing carbon emission by up to 10 tons annually.
