SUMMARY:New Local Authority Approach to Person Centered Retrofit for Fuel Poverty
DESCRIPTION:We have been looking at how we can better fund whole house retrofit for those most vulnerable to fuel poverty. Come along to find out more.\n\n\nNottingham City Council and Plymouth City Council are working with Carbon Co-op through mPower\, Horizon 2020 project\, to investigate opportunities to develop a sustainable financial approach to whole house retrofit of fuel poor homes\, using a person-centred approach.  \n \nWith the introduction of Green Homes Grant Local Authority Delivery (LAD) and Home Upgrade Grants (HUG) being delivered through local authorities alongside existing Energy Company Obligation (ECO) delivery\, grant funding for energy efficient retrofit is at the highest level for over a decade. Moreover\, the security of future investment in this sector looks more certain than ever\, as does a local authority-led delivery model for at least some of the funding.  \n \nWhile more retrofit is being delivered\, these schemes are disproportionately failing to address the most vulnerable homes. Nottingham City Council and Plymouth City Council have worked collaboratively to investigate how whole house retrofit can deliver to those most vulnerable\, and how this could be sustainably financed.  \n \nWe are keen to share our learning with other Local Authorities in the UK and with stakeholders and institutions from the health\, energy\, employment\, property development and education sectors who can see the benefits of working together to tackle fuel poverty.   \n \nAgenda \nIntroduction to mPower – Justin Bear\, Project Manager\, Plymouth City Council and Plymouth Energy Community. \nPresentation on People-Centred Fuel Poverty Approaches – Dr Alice Jones\, Impact Consulting Ltd. \nPanelist discussion with:  \n\nEleanor Radcliff\, Senior Researcher from Centre for Local Economic Strategies on Local Anchor Networks\nBruce Davis from Abundance Investment on Community Municipal Investment.\n\n[Due to UCU strike action Dr Mark Davis and Prof Lucie Middlemiss are no longer able to attend ] \nDiscussion   \n \nStakeholder Workshop \nThis event will be followed by a Stakeholder Workshop\, if you are based in Nottingham or Plymouth and are interested in talking with the team about their work and how it is relevant to your organisation please contact aneaka@carbon.coop. \n \nSpeaker Biographies \n\n\nJustin Bear joined the PEC team in September 2017. He coordinates PEC’s energy team to install simple energy efficient measures and provide advice. He also works behind the scenes to develop new opportunities. \nWith a Natural Sciences degree from the University of Bath\, he enjoys communicating technical information in an uncomplicated and engaging way. He has used these skills delivering fuel poverty projects at the Centre for Sustainable Energy in Bristol between 2013 and 2017 and before this worked briefly for Good Energy. \n\n\n\nEllie Radcliffe is a Senior Researcher at the Centre for Local Economic Strategies\, having previously developed diverse experience across the third sector. Ellie delivers research\, membership\, policy and consultancy work at CLES\, and has particular interests in deepening local democracy\, climate change and community activism. She also delivers work exploring how to tackle environmental breakdown using community wealth building and was co-lead author on CLES and Carbon Co-op’s A community wealth building energy transition toolkit. Outside work she is involved in developing the circular economy and community growing where she lives in Manchester. \n\n\n\nBruce Davis is Cofounder and Joint Managing Director of Abundance Investment. Abundance were the world’s first regulated crowdfunding platform and have since raised more than £115m for green and socially positive projects and businesses in the UK direct from small investors – investing from just £5. Abundance worked with the University of Leeds and UK Government to create a new generation of “Community Municipal Investments” and launched the first two pilot bonds in 2020 with West Berkshire and Warrington. They are working with a number of councils across the UK to issue Local Climate Investments using the CMI structure with 5 further councils announcing intention to issue investments post COP. Islington are the latest authority to issue an investment aiming to raise £1m for 6 local projects. Bruce is also Visiting Research Fellow at the Bauman Institute\, University of Leeds and has recently published a book – “Crowdfunding and the democratization of Finance” with Dr Mark Davis\, via Bristol University Press.  \n\n\n\nAbout \nThis event is being hosted by Carbon Co-op in partnership with Nottingham City Council and Plymouth City Council as a part of a European Funded Horizon 2020 project\, mPower.

SUMMARY:How much insulation do you need to fit a heat pump?
DESCRIPTION:How much insulation do you need to reduce space heating demand to install a heat pump?\n\n\nWith large scale installation of domestic heat pumps identified as a key technology to support UK decarbonisation targets\, there is increasing discussion about how to install them in a way that maximises their efficiency and performance. \nLower home heating demand means a smaller heat pump is required\, but does the typical home need to be a super insulated  Passivhaus or can we get away without improving a house at all? Opinions differ! \nIn this best practice webinar\, we will hear from three experts in the field to get different views on the subject and attempt to answer the question: How much insulation do you need to install a heat pump? \nMarianne Heaslip is a retrofit architect and technical lead at People Powered Retrofit\, Leah  Robson co-owner of heat pump installers Your Energy Your Way\, and Matt Fawcett is Energy Systems lead at Carbon Co-op and project manager of the Heat Pump Challenge and will discuss heat pump performance monitoring and evaluation approaches.  \nThe presentations will be followed by an opportunity for Q&A.  \nThis webinar is suitable for practitioners\, installers\, engineers\, architects\, policy makers\, Community Energy groups and householders with high levels of technical knowledge. The session will be recorded and made available after the event.  \nIt is part of Carbon Co-op’s Heat Pump Challenge project funded by MCS Charitable Foundation and Electricity North West Powering our Communities Fund . \nOrganised in collaboration with People Powered Retrofit.

SUMMARY:EcoHome Lab: Xmas Special (hybrid event)
DESCRIPTION:We’ll be hosting an in person event at Bridge 5 Mill (where Carbon Co-op has our office) but the presentation and Q&A will also be streamed online. \nPresentation: Ben Aylott will be presenting his work on a new time stepping methodology for calculating the dynamic interaction between Energy Smart Appliances in the home and it’s potential for better prediction\, modelling and scheduling. \nWe’ll also have an Xmas swap shop\, so bring down any smart home items your no longer using. Carbon Co-op have a load of interesting stuff to give away – from zigbee relays\, to beaglebones to random development boards (we’ll have a donations pot for Care4Calais and Forus Tree – a local tree planting Co-op). \nThere will also be- non-alcoholic drinks and beers on offer and maybe a mince pie or two… \nIf you’re not able to join in person the meet link is the same as normal. \n

SUMMARY:EcoHome Lab: Monthly meetup and skill share
DESCRIPTION:——————————————————————————— \nNow in our regular monthly slot – every second Thursday of the month. A hangout for people taking control of their home energy usage and generation. We use open-source hardware and software to gain a better understanding of energy in our homes\, how to make the best use of the energy we generate and reduce energy wasted. \nThis is a CarbonCo-op (https://carbon.coop/) initiative working close together with OpenEnergyMonitor (https://openenergymonitor.org). \n \n \nTopics will include: \n• Home energy monitoring. \n• House energy performance assessment \n• Sensors – electricity\, gas\, temperature\, humidity\, air quality… \n• User interfaces\, dashboards \n• Smart houses and automation \n• Aggregation of data sources \n• Taking the power back! – Making better use of the surplus power we generate \nWho is it for? \n• Anyone with skills in physical electronics\, web development or programming who wants to use that knowledge to reduce energy and carbon! \n• There will be open space for small groups to focus on adding new sensors or hacking the user interface\, there will always be a ‘newbies’ group for people interested in finding out more.
