Energy for everyone campaign offers guidance on saving energy

Cheshire West and Chester Council recently launched an energy saving campaign which provides residents and businesses with advice and tips on saving energy, reducing bills and helping to cut properties’ carbon emissions.

With energy prices remaining high, making properties as energy efficient as possible will help reduce bills, provide more comfortable buildings to live and work in and reduce the carbon footprint of properties across the borough.

The Council’s Energy for Everyone hub shares ways that people can make improvements to their properties to help them be more energy efficient. Advice will be added to the site throughout the year and will include both easy, low-cost energy saving tips as well as advice on projects which will help people transition to powering their properties with renewable sources of energy, such as installing solar photovoltaic (PV) systems.

Lots of energy saving projects are already taking place across the borough and the Council is keen to showcase this on the Energy for Everyone hub. Residents, businesses and community groups are encouraged to share what steps they’ve taken to help improve the energy efficiency of their properties. People can upload their stories to the ‘energy saving stories’ section or add details on the ‘energy action map’ on the hub.

The borough continues on our journey to net zero, with many energy saving projects to make west Cheshire carbon neutral by 2045. Find out more about our plan and how to play your part: View the Cheshire West and Chester Climate Emergency Response Plan online
