Electricity

We chose Scottish Green H2O option, who matches the amount of electricity we use with a supply of clean, green hydro-power – sourced from our stations in Lanark, Galloway and Cruachan – into the electricity grid.

Heating

We are heating the entire Barn, Cowsheds and the farm house with one central boiler burning wood.
