About this Event

Energy costs, energy security and sustainability are challenges many of us are feeling, whether at home, at work, or running small organisations and community spaces.Join Robert Wilson from Gensource for a practical, accessible talk at Tribe Porty that starts with simple, low‑cost actions anyone can take today to reduce energy use and bills, before exploring how renewable energy technologies like solar, battery storage and EV charging can help buildings and communities become more resilient in the longer term.The session will cover:

  • Everyday energy‑saving tips that work for renters, homeowners and small businesses
  • How small changes add up to real cost and carbon savings
  • An introduction to sustainable energy technologies and where they make most sense
  • How organisations and community spaces can access grant‑funded renewable solutions
  • Real‑world examples of projects delivered locally and across Scotland

Whether you’re just looking to cut costs, curious about renewables, or interested in how community spaces can play a role in the energy transition, this talk is designed to leave you informed, empowered, and inspired — no technical background required.
