We have a large Consultancy team who are able to offer expert advice, you can see our consultancy pages for more information if you are interested.

But our communities team can offer expert advice too. We are registered with the Energy Saving Trust as experts on their Green Neighbourhood panel and we have been called upon to give advice and presentations and to provide feasibility studies.

Interactive Presentation

In Shelford, just outside Cambridge, we provided an interactive presentation on solar technologies.  This included how both Solar Thermal and Photovoltaics work, how much they can cost, how you can install yourself and how communities can work together to get better deals.  After the presentation we held a comprehensive question and answer session where we gave specific advice to homeowners interested in installations.

If your community requires some technical advice please do get in touch.  If we are unable to help we will usually know someone who can.
