The average UK household spends over £1,300 on energy each year. Unfortunately, much of the energy used is wasted, pouring out of homes through drafty doors and windows and uninsulated walls, floors, lofts and basements.

Cllr Lynne Hillian, Former Leader of Barnet Council
“Too often community activity can be stymied by the state. We are proposing that a new model of engagement may well see the Council provide the support the community needs to support activities such as clearing snow or tackling local environmental damage.
Innovations like Barnet Pledgebank will not make a big society overnight - but they do point to a local government that does things with residents, rather than “for “or “to” them”.
Extracts from article in Local Government Chronicle.

Fuel Poverty is one of the most pressing social justice issues facing the UK. There are now over 5 million people paying more than 10% of their income on energy bills, particularly the elderly and vulnerable whose health is adversely affected by living in a cold, home. And in the UK, more people die as a result of living in cold, damp homes than in traffic accidents. This situtation needs to change. Urgently.
In Barnet, we estimate there could be 50,000 in fuel poverty. Residents like:
Risk of Blackouts: With a quarter of the UK’s generating capacity shutting down over the next ten years as old coal and nuclear power stations close, more than £110bn in investment is needed to build the equivalent of 20 large power stations and upgrade the grid. By 2050, electricity demand is set to double, as we shift more transport and heating on the electricity grid. And, by 2020, we will need to import 80% of our oil and gas BUT political turbulence in the Middle East and terrorism threatens security of supply.
Much of the energy we use is wasted, pouring out of uninsulated walls, floors, roofs and basements. This means most of us spend more on gas and electricity than we need to. Less than 200,000 of the UK’s 26 million homes generate their own energy. Less than 50% of homes have any insulation. 10 million homes have insufficiently insulated lofts. Over 6 million homes require solid wall insulation.
Unless we therefore change the way we use and generate energy,
the UK faces economic disruption and power blackouts.
