Home A big part of our energy use is in our homes and in older buildings up to 70% of energy use is for heating rather than for appliances and lighting. In recent times there has been a lot of emphasis on improving the energy efficiency of new build houses, but this will all change with the introduction of Green Deal in Autumn 2012.
Energy saving - What can I do? What do I do first? General advice is readily available, but the difficult thing is tailoring it to your own home and family. Since detail is often from suppliers or installers, it can be difficult to obtain unbiased information.

* Home energy audits * Air tightness testing * Thermal imaging * Education and training
