Energy Advice and Advocacy in Monmouthshire

This project will support approximately 4,000 disadvantaged and vulnerable households who struggle with fuel poverty. The project will combine a free advice line with face-to-face advocacy to support people to take control of their energy use and become less vulnerable to the risks/impacts of fuel poverty. It will help people understand their energy use, save energy in their homes, communicate with their energy providers, and access grants and other support to better manage their bills.  The project will work with diverse communities including those with health conditions, older people and

It will help people understand their energy use, save energy in their homes, communicate with their energy providers, and access grants and other support to better manage their bills.  The project will work with diverse communities including those with health conditions, older people and people living in areas of deprivation. This is a partnership between Severn Wye and Monmouthshire County Council. The project will allow vulnerable households to be able to access support for energy efficiency improvements, which will reduce energy costs and improve health. They will work to find long-term solutions to fuel poverty, empowering and helping residents to avoid the choice between heating and eating.

Project Name
Warm Connections 2

Warm Connections provides a free, impartial energy advice service to households, focussing on reducing carbon emissions through behavioural changes, energy saving measures and renewable technologies. The project area covers Aberfeldy and surrounds (Ward Four Highland west of the A9, plus Killin) and is classified by the Scottish Government, as ‘remote rural’ or ‘very remote rural’; over half of households are off the gas grid. By being based within the project area, Warm Connections has made face to face home energy advice far more accessible to householders in the area.

Community-Led Energy Allocation of Renewables (CLEAR)

CLEAR maximises the use of local, green generation by matching solar generation with local domestic customer demand.  All available renewable generation is matched with local customers, digitally and automatically before any electricity is imported from the Grid unlocking benefits of c3.2p/kWh for matched electricity that’s shared amongst participants.

This project will trial the roll-out of a new P2P energy time-matching service not yet accessible to energy consumers that will reduce customer bills and reduce the environmental impact and carbon emissions of the energy used. With potential for UK-wide replication, CLEAR provides immediate access to cheaper, greener energy for households, and incentivizes the installation of new domestic PV systems. The project presents a blueprint for maximising local renewable energy generation and consumption.
