the Fantastic Home trailer. Staff were on hand to offer advice on energy efficiency and found that there was a great deal of interest in domestic renewables and tariff switching. Kris McGowan of Marches Energy Agency said:‘About a third of the people that visited either had renewables already or were very positively interested. We also helped a number of people to assess and consider altering their electricity tariff as they were unnecessarily on Economy 7 which will in fact be costing them more.’
Visitors to the exhibition were also able to take away free items
which will help them save money. The lifetime savings from these items will be:
