“No solar? No problem!”
Thursday 22 Apr 7pm to 9pm
Darron Honey Centre (rear of Uniting Church), Maroondah Hwy, Healesville
Most homes and workplaces in Australia are not well designed for our harsh climate: blisteringly hot in summer and freezing cold in winter. With the rising price of electricity, it can cost a small fortune to heat and cool our homes and businesses.
This workshop will detail a series of simple, cost effective steps we can all use to become more energy efficient in day-to-day life. We will be focusing on pragmatic, needs-based solutions aimed at reducing our individual energy consumption and reducing energy bills.
FREE LIGHT REFRESHMENTS will be available at each face-to-face event
