Overview of Energy and how to ensure the poorest are not left behind

Healthy Homes Hub Presents: Ensuring Equitable Energy Access in Housing

Join us for an insightful online event focusing on the crucial topic of energy in social housing.

Discover the political and policy landscape, the evolution of UK energy efficiency policies, and the intricacies of the UK's energy arrangements. This event is essential for anyone involved in social housing (or other housing tenures) who wants to ensure that energy access is equitable, energy bills are reduced and that the poorest are not left behind as we move towards Net Zero.

We are thrilled to have energy expert Paul Hallas join us. With over 20 years at Centrica in senior leadership roles, Paul brings a wealth of knowledge and experience. He currently serves as a Non-Executive Director with Manchester Energy Network and the Retail Energy Code Company. As Director of SE24 Sustainable Energy and Community Energy London, Paul is at the forefront of community energy projects and advocacy. His work is deeply rooted in the Net Zero transition, and he has provided consultancy for a UK energy efficiency service provider and a European parliamentary body on UK energy efficiency policies.

• Understand the Energy Efficiency Landscape: Gain a clear understanding of the UK’s energy arrangements, access to the various existing schemes and the direction of energy efficiency policies under a new UK government.
• Support Vulnerable Tenants: Learn strategies to support your tenants in energy efficiency, maximise access to available funds and ensure that the most vulnerable are not left behind.
• Expert Insights: Paul Hallas will break down complex energy efficiency topics into easy-to-understand concepts.
• Collaborate for Change: Discuss how we can work together to bridge the gap in energy access to energy efficiency improvments and create healthier homes for all.

For homes to be healthy, they need energy to function – from providing lighting and thermal comfort to enabling the cooking of food. Energy bills remain unaffordable for many and half of our housing stock still falls below and acceptable energy efficiency standard. But how well do you understand the policy support for home energy improvement and the direction of travel in the UK? This knowledge is vital whether you're looking to generate energy at scale or support tenants in energy efficiency.

This informative session is not to be missed. Join us to ensure you are equipped with the knowledge and strategies to make a real difference in your community.

Let's work together to make homes healthier and ensure that no one is left behind in the energy transition.
