Crediton Community Energy Project
We are delighted to announce that Sustainable Crediton has just
been awarded a substantial sum from the Rural Community Energy Fund
to develop a community-owned renewable energy project. Full details
of the grant and the project will be explained in the Crediton
Courier on Friday 5th September.
Ecotricity Affinity Scheme
We have negotiated a scheme with Ecotricity whereby Sustainable
Crediton will receive some cash towards a community fund if any of
our supporters switch electricity or gas or both to Ecotricity. More details can be found at this
link.

The Energy Roadshow
Everyone wants to save energy and working together as a
community can be a great way to reduce everyone's fuel bills and
energy use, but it's not always easy to know how best to go about
it. Although there are plenty of options - solar power, wind
generation, insulation, energy saving devices and the like - it's
difficult to know where to start. We're going to be available
to help you piece together the options for your home and how to get
started.
