What is a Energy Neighbourhood?

 

This is a group of 5 to 15 households who accepted the challenge to reduce their energy consumption by up to 9% over 4 months.  The group would ideally live in the same neighbourhood or know each other from a club, society or residents group etc.  Each neighbourhood has its own energy master - a householder who will lead the neighbourhood to glory!  The energy master helps people on how to save energy.  The energy master is given a full training and provided with the appropriate tools to aid success.

 

What's in it for me?

  • New skills -   confused by your energy bills, unsure of how you could make your savings? then this project was able to help.
  • New Friends - Social events in the local area, as well as a big party at the end with all the other energy neighbourhoods.
