Smart Home Energy is all about using technology to better manage how and when you use electricity. From smart tariffs and home batteries to solar panels, EV chargers and heat pumps, connected technologies can help reduce bills, make the most of renewable energy and lower your carbon footprint.
As energy prices continue to rise, we’ll explore real-world smart energy systems already being used by households across Cumbria to reduce their energy bills. We’ll show how people are taking advantage of cheaper electricity prices, explain how different renewable technologies work together, and demonstrate how simple automations can help your home use energy more efficiently.
You’ll hear from local households about their own setups and learn how technologies such as solar panels, batteries, heat pumps and smart meters can work together to make energy work harder for you.
We’ll break down the jargon and explain concepts such as smart tariffs and home automation in clear, accessible language, with plenty of opportunity to ask questions.
