Energy Fair 18th November


All you ever wanted to know about renewable energy but were afraid to ask........


Kingsbridge Area Sustainability Group ( a collective of local organisations and groups: Kingsbridge Climate Action, Greener East Allington, Wild About Loddiswell, Buckland Tout Saints PC, Buckland/Bantham/Thurlestone Sustainability, Sustainable Malborough & South Hams and Kingsbridge Town Council) are holding their first group event: an Energy Fair on Saturday 18th November, 10am to 3pm at Harbour House, Kingsbridge, along with Gazebos in the Farmers' Market on the Town Square .

If you're thinking about renewable energy for your home - for instance installing solar panels, or a heat pump and are wondering how much it's going to cost to install? How much it will save you? Who might be a reliable company to install it? If there is anyone with a thermal imaging camera who can survey your house? If there are grants or loans available to help fund the work? Or you have any other questions, then this is an event not to miss.


Children can take part in creative activities provided by Seadream Education or have a go on a smoothie bike, so there is plenty to amuse younger family members too.


There will be the opportunity to listen to talks by installers (Mole Energy and Eco-Traders) and to speak with them on their stalls. Local householders will be sharing their experiences of the installation of solar panels and heat pumps. Representatives from South Dartmoor Community Energy and Lendology will be on hand to give practical advice about renewables, home energy efficiency, finance and affordability. Dr Juliette Jackson of Seadream Education will also be giving a talk, demonstrating thermal imaging cameras and providing fun, creative and interactive activities. A representative from South Milton Climate and Nature Action Group will also be talking about their thermal imaging camera and the survey service they provide to residents in their parish.

On the town square there will be gazebos with information about renewables, Sustainable South Hams, local environmental action groups and the work done by local councils to create a greener future.

Refreshments will be available from Feast Kitchen on the Town Square and in the cafe at Harbour House.

Energy and conservation themed artwork by local students will also be on display.

The event has been funded by contributions from District and County Councillors and Kingsbridge Climate Action.
