Sustainable Energy – notes from 25th July meeting

Sustainable Energy Group

Renewable Energy

What are the most appropriate renewable types for Brighton and Hove?
What have we got already?
Microgeneration and/or community renewable projects?
What potential funding is there?

Energy Efficiency

How can we conserve energy?
What is being done already?
How do we engage people to do more and raise awareness?


Fuel Poverty

Where are the target areas for fuel poverty in Brighton and Hove?
What partnership agencies could we work with and support?
What funding exists?

The Premise

Just a few questions to get this started. I don't know if anybody else has started work on this yet so apologies if Im covering similar ground but I haven't seen anything on the existing pages.

The main focus of this group would I suggest be to reduce carbon emissions, initiate and support sustainable energy projects and alleviate fuel poverty.

This group would need to co-ordinate closely with health, building, transport and climate issues and engage with existing agencies.

A good starting point would be to scope all existing sustainable energy initiatives that are aligned to the transition process.

Please comment and get in touch.
