Heating and insulation Over 50% of the heat loss from an average
home is through the roof and walls. And in the UK, over 25% of
all carbon dioxide emissions come from the energy we use to heat
and light our homes and power our household appliances. Energy
efficiency is about using energy in your home in a way to make
sure you are warm and comfortable; but not wasting this valuable
resource and, at the same time, your money. We want to improve
energy efficiency in Richmond properties; but there is a lot
that residents can do to help themselves. On these pages you can
find out about advice and grants to help you make changes and
tips on saving energy. Visit the Go Green website for further
information on how to reduce money on your household utility
bills.
