EST Advice Centre funding supersedes 2 previous contracts in place to provide Greater Manchester Energy Efficiency Advice Centres (EEACs) for Manchester.
The benefits of an EST Advice Centre for both local authorities and communities are clear. Aside from the overriding imperative of cutting emissions and combating climate change, the Advice Centre will support authorities in delivery of climate change and energy related performance measures, provide support and assistance in developing schemes and projects to deliver energy use reduction, and help your householders increase disposable income via cutting energy bills. The project will also assist in securing grants and other inward investment, work to establish and grow energy products and services supply chains in the local area, and support existing energy services companies in updating their service offering to take account of the climate change agenda.
