Energy saving devices. Heating in the workshop is via infra -red heaters that warm only the body, while a motion sensitive system controls the energy saving lights around the building to minimise use.

Photovoltaic Cells. 14 units on the upper-roof generating 2,380W (peak). Power is fed via an inverter into the building as required, while any surplus power is fed into the grid.
