Project Case Studies
Cycling to Success!
One family involved in Eco n’Home showed a strong motivation to change their habits after deciding to ride a bicycle or take public transport every day, instead of the car. This reduced their energy consumption in transportation by 45%. ALME, the local energy agency (part of FLAME), also recommended seven energy saving measures in the house; six of which have been undertaken and the final one is in progress. This included using electrical appliances less, swapping bulbs for low energy alternatives, installing water saving devices, insulating hot water pipes and better use of heating controls. These savings reduced their household energy consumption by 25% and overall this reduced their CO2 emissions by 6.2 tonnes.
