The Cobargo & Region Energy Transition group (CaRET), SouthCoast Health and Sustainability Alliance (SHASA) and Clean Energy for Eternity, Bermagui (CEFE) have joined forces to provide information and support to Bega Valley and Eurobodalla households on building energy-efficient houses.

A well designed or renovated energy efficient house will not only help save money, but it will also provide a more comfortable living space and create a healthier living environment both for its occupants and the planet. A win-win all around.

An upcoming free online webinar will focus on the two biggest energy uses in the home: space conditioning and water heating. The webinar will help you navigate the technology and product choices involved in selecting water heaters and home heating/cooling equipment. Other significant energy users like fridges will also be discussed.

The presentations will be made by leading home energy and consumer experts from the independent, national not-for-profit organisations Renew and Choice. They will also discuss where to find and how to use online resources (e.g. product comparison tools) that can help households make smart choices.

CaRET, SHASA and CEFE also conducted a webinar in August that looked at how to design and build (or renovate) and energy-efficient home. This featured one of Australia’s leading and most experienced energy efficiency experts Alan Pears, AM and local specialist in designing energy-efficient homes Paul Dolphin.
