We are contracted through these schemes to provide expert advice and arrange energy efficiency measures on behalf of householders. We also provide advice to businesses and communities and assist them in accessing funding to make energy efficiency improvements and install renewable energy systems. We also manage a Climate Action Hub which provides support to local community groups, which is funded by the Scottish Government. Lastly we provide education to local schools and training to organisations including Carbon Literacy training.
