Renewable Energy 

Join us for our first Energy Fair in Kingsbridge

Saturday 18th November - 10am to 3pm
Harbour House Gallery, Kingsbridge

Are you curious about renewable energy?

Thinking about installing low carbon heating solutions in your home?

Wondering how much it will cost, how much you'll save and if there are any loans or grants available to you?

 

This event is your opportunity to find out about all of the above.

Meet local installers, ask questions, learn about the range of options out there and chat to local residents with recent experience of domestic renewable energy solutions.

There will be solar panel and heat pump experts, home energy efficiency advisors, information about grants and lending, thermal imaging cameras and information about how you can borrow them for your home, retrofit advisors as well as creative and interactive activities for all ages. PLUS delicious food available from Feast Kitchen.
