Brighton and Hove residents are being urged to explore the benefits of switching to a green energy supplier at an event in the city tomorrow, January 24, supported by the council.
 
Brighton & Hove City Council is committed to promoting renewable energy and for the last seven years council sites in the city have been powered from green energy suppliers using 100% renewable sources.
 
Residents too can take advantage of a range of green energy available in the city. Research shows a growing trend towards using environmentally friendly energy suppliers, with various options now on the market.
 
A local community group is aiming to increase take up of sustainable energy in the home setting.

Brighton and Hove Eco Energy is holding an information evening tomorrow at the Old Ship Hotel at 7.30pm. Residents are invited to take their latest bills for comparison with green tariffs. Anyone wanting to go green can choose from companies with 100% renewable energy policies to suppliers offering lower carbon emissions than other operators.
 
Cllr Pete West said:
“The people of Brighton & Hove have a genuine and growing understanding of the importance of responsible energy use. The take up of green energy by those willing and able to do so is encouraging. We welcome initiatives offering local advice to residents about how and why to switch to a green supplier.”
