Why Invest in Wind Turbines with Bowler Energy and Potential Returns

  • Up to 20 year government guaranteed payments

  • Indexed linked payments future proof your investment

  • Bank beating percentage return on your capital

  • Protection from future electricity price increases

Current government guaranteed payments (called Feed-in tariffs) provide an attractive rate of return. These payments are secured once your system has been installed. The feed-in tariffs are reviewed at least once a year with a declining rate year-on-year. Act now to maximise your returns!
