REAL - An introduction

The aim of the REAL Assurance Scheme is to ensure that consumers wishing to install a small-scale heat or power generation unit for their homes have the necessary confidence and service standards so that they can make an informed choice.

Who are REAL Members?

Our members are firms selling or leasing small-scale renewable or low carbon heat or power generation unit who have agreed to comply with  the REAL Assurance Scheme Consumer Code. This Code is backed  by the Office of Fair Trading as part of its self-regulation initiative, the Consumer Codes Approval Scheme.

What is a small-scale heat or power generation unit?

Small-scale  heat or  power generation units are small-scale devices which enable you to generate your own heat or power from renewable or non-renewable, low carbon sources.

For example, these can include photovoltaic solar panels, small-scale wind and hydro powered generating units, ground or air source heat pumps, solar water heating panels, boilers  or combined heat and power units fuelled by  wood chips.

These units have the potential to reduce your energy bills, reduce the impact you have on the environment, and maybe even give you the ability to sell your electricity back to the grid. They also help reduce our dependence on large generating plants located far from where you live.
