Join our information-packed webinar on Monday evening to find out about measures to help green your home.  Our expert speakers will help you set priorities and choose what's right for your home and lifestyle.

1. Insulation – Dermot Barnes, MHSG and en10ergy

Wrap up your home well first before considering energy supply. Dermot will wise us up on internal and external wall insulation, loft and underfloor insulation, and any gaps in between!

2. Heat pumps – Mike Shipp, Carbon3

Mike is a partner at carbon 3 which designs, supplies and installs Air Source Heat Pump, Mechanical Ventilation & Heat Recovery and Solar PV systems. . Amongst Mike’s long line of project experience was installation of the first ASHP for Mitsubishi which has now become the UK market leader.

3. Solar panels – Jon Cowdrill, Joju Solar

If you’re considering a solar PV system, battery storage or an electric vehicle (EV) charging point for your home, it’s important to get the equipment and set-up to best suited to your building and household needs. Jon will draw on Joju Solar’s extensive experience mounting solar panels on everything from shed roofs and hundreds of homes on housing estates, to one-of-a-kind self-builds and living roofs. 

4. Smart Meters – Cara Jenkinson, MHSG

Smart meters send readings direct to the supplier, meaning an end to estimated bills and putting consumers in control of their energy use.  

Does this mean we can increase our home energy efficiency and save money on energy bills? MHSG’s Chair Cara Jenkinson will set out the pros and cons.
