DEBATE: TAX ON RENEWABLE ENERGY GENERATORS SHOULD BE ABOLISHED!
Posted by: WARTORIOUS

The government claim that the environment is one of their priorities. Yet this tax seems to send a different message. If we're going to make a move towards green energy sources, then we need to remove these financial disincentives.

TAX ON RENEWABLE ENERGY GENERATORS SHOULD BE ABOLISHED!
Renewable energy is not a luxury!
In brief, the best way for the UK to make electricity with all things considered is micro-generation, That is to say private companies and individuals investing in things like solar power, or a wind turbine. However the cost of buying such a device is quite large and often you won't make any money back for many years. The government should: 1. Abolish all tax on wind turbines, solar energy generators, and other forms of private energy generation. It’s not a luxury good; it’s for the good of the UK and the world and will help with the Kyoto agreement. 2. Find out what a wind generators, and other forms of micro-generation cost for the companies that make them and put limits on what companies can charge for the micro-generators. Give the general public the best possible value for money whilst keeping the companies in profit. 3. Give people who make more energy than they use a fair rate for that energy. It costs much more at the moment to buy electricity off the national grid than to sell it. This should be stopped and people paid fairly.
Environmentally friendly policies are going to make a great impact on the economy; the 'green' way of doing things is almost always, at least in the short term, the most expensive. The government simply cannot afford to foot the bill for all of these expenses. Individuals have to make a financial contribution to a better world as well as organisations. Your taxes will help to pay for national environmental strategies. Plus, in the long run, renewable energy sources will work out cheaper than paying for power, so a generator is a sensible investment.

Solar And Wind Generators Are Very Expensive, How about A Do It Yourself Solar or Wind Solution
I have been researching solar panels and wind generators for quite a few years now. Technology and advancements have evolved these products to an extent, but the prices are still quite high. These devices normally should be considered an investment until discovering a website that all everyone interested in using small solar panels or wind energy to provide electrical energy for your homes.Everyone deserves the opportunity to save some money and possibly become independent on their own from requiring a electrical bill. The website I found has the designs on how to build your solar panels and wind mill generators. This book will also tell you where you can purchase all the parts you need to build these units. OK, you might be thinking. You are not going to believe this but you can build either a solar panel or wind generating windmill for under $200.00. I could not believe it until seeing examples.After you build one solar panel it will provide xxx amounts of storable energy. However, you can install another solar panel you build (if you have space, is always a factor) and place them in parallel to increase the power intake from the solar panels for more power. I am not going to get into any more science on you, but just to inform all my green friends. You can get into the game for real. The website is www.LightningInABottleMarketing.comGo ahead and check it out. Don't take my word for it do your own research. Good Luck.
