The latest meeting of Reading Climate Change Partnership was on 27th May.
The main points for discussion included the proposed Green Energy Opportunity, using pv panels to provide free electricity during the day on selected buildings and profit from the Feed in Tariff to tackle fuel poverty PLUS encouraging people to think more about their energy usage. The criteria for voluntary and community sector buildings who would like to apply to benefit from this will be circulated shortly by Reading Voluntary Action.
More work will be done on studying behaviour change thanks to a proposed six month internship at the University of Reading and officer time made available at Reading Borough Council.
A new climate change strategy will be required from 2013 and we need to begin thinking about that now.
