Can small changes to when you use energy really make a difference?
Two thirds of people feel that greener living is out of reach1, with many put off by the perceived cost of home improvements or simply not knowing which green technologies and tariffs are the best fit for their home. But taking steps towards greener living doesn’t always have to start with a big home upgrade, sometimes the small steps can make the biggest difference.
In the latest episode of the Great Green Challenge on Tour, George meets ScottishPower customer Rebecca in Barry, Wales to find out how her busy family household uses Power Saver2 to make small changes to when they use electricity. Together, they explore how being more flexible with your energy use can help you save money on your energy bills, while supporting a cleaner energy system too.
