The minutes of the last energy group meeting are available by clicking here .

We talked a bit about ideas for future energy group activities, and there were a couple of interesting ideas. One was to set up a library of low-energy lightbulbs, to be lent out so people can see which ones suit their particular purposes - I'm sure we aren't the only ones with dark corners of rooms because the new bulbs didn't live up to their promises (and, to be fair, we also have one that's much to bright for the fitting it's in). The other idea was to set up a programme of regular talks and events on an energy theme - maybe visits to the homes of people doing interesting things, or to the Balcas wood pellet factory, or we could use some of the contacts we made for the seminars at Greening Homes and Gardens Day to do some talks.

Does anyone have any views about either of these ideas? And would anyone like to get involved in organising them?
