Home energy
The cheapest and cleanest energy is the energy that you don't use! CEN can help you with reducing your energy consumption at home. We have two options available for in home assessments:
1. Free home energy advisory service
This volunteer service is limited to one household per month and those who are unable to afford professional advice will be prioritised. This free service is to help householders understand what can be achieved with various budgets to make our homes more energy efficient, more comfortable, and to reduce our carbon footprint.
2. Professional Scorecard home energy efficiency assessment
Book with our partners, Going Green Solutions, and the commission they pay CEN helps to fund our activities and events.
Who are the advisors?
Our home energy efficiency advisors are trained community volunteers who have completed two days training in home energy efficiency.
They do not have the qualifications of an assessor but can offer helpful advice in creating an energy efficient home for increased all year comfort. Our volunteer advisors have been trained by the very experienced assessor and trainer, Lucinda Flynn, who will also supervise their work. While our volunteer assessors are not as highly trained as Lucinda, they do provide significant insight and advice pertaining to creating efficiency within the home and will be sufficient for many people who do not want to go to the expense of a professional service.
Our volunteer advisors work in pairs and will visit your house, discuss your situation and provide you advice on the basis of your needs and their assessment of the energy efficiency of your home. After the visit a written report will be provided to you with suggestions regarding the actions you can take.
Register for one of our trained Volunteer Home Energy Efficiency Advisors to provide a free visit and a free report.
