Our Farmers and Landowners Service
Farmers and landowners have been involved in renewable energy provision for many years, however, the tariff radically shifts the financial rewards in the farmer or landowner’s favour. The potential benefits to farmers and landowners from the tariffs should not be underestimated and should certainly not be ignored.
The new renewable energy tariffs will greatly increase the potential for biomass heat and power creating new markets for wood, crops and agri- and arbori-cultural arisings. The tariffs will also offer new opportunities for many other forms of renewable energy to be deployed in the countryside: anaerobic digestion, hydro-power, solar energy, wind power - the range of approaches that can now be economically exploited is almost endless. In addition, farmers and landowners should not ignore the savings that will be achieved on their own heat and electricity bills.
There is a vast range of options available to farmers and landowners when considering how to make best use of the tariffs.
Ownergy understands that this diversity of investment choice is itself a barrier as it can seem costly and time-consuming to determine the best approach.
We simplify the process of surveying, designing, installing, and maintaining your renewable energy. We can also help you finance the systems and collect the tariff.
Our end-to-end installation and tariff management service is unique in simplifying and managing the entire process on your behalf.
To find out how you can benefit either:
1. Complete our online Energy Selector for your farm (select non-residential Energy Selector).

Our service
Ownergy is the only business set up to simplify this process for you through four simple stages:
1. Select – we help you understand what renewable options are best for you so that you can take maximum advantage of the tariffs
2. Design – we survey your property and manage all the design work to guarantee the highest quality of workmanship. We will also provide advice on how to manage any planning considerations
3. Install – we install all types of eligible renewable energy systems and ensure that you are connected and set up to claim the tariffs
4. Manage – we maintain the system to optimise its earnings and collect the tariff on your behalf, sending you a quarterly payment in return
In addition, we have partners that help finance your renewable energy system so you avoid a lot of the capital expenditure, using the tariff payments to finance the repayment.
Our standalone service
Ownergy will develop any scheme, regardless of size, that is eligible under the renewable energy tariffs. For the larger standalone systems, such as solar parks, wind turbines, anaerobic digestion and hydro-power plants, please see our Standalone applications section.
