Great Britain wastes £180,000 every hour switching off wind turbines and overpaying gas generators to switch on. That's £673,338,224 so far this year! wastedwind.energy

Last week, at our energy advice stall in The Beacon, #Eastbourne, one of our directors, Jill Shacklock, was demonstrating the energy game she has designed to test people's awareness of how much energy various household devices consume. Highly entertaining game!
