For anyone planning on a self-build project, the go-to source of information is the House Planning Help blog and podcast written by Ben Adam-Smith. Having featured a number of tips on building an ecologically sustainable house, the latest episode concentrates on the extraction of energy from watercourses such as rivers, streams and lakes.
In the interview Justin explains to Ben how energy in the form of heat can be collected for a water source heat pump even if there is insufficient flow or head to install a micro-hydro scheme.
