Wednesday 24 April 2024, Lewes Town Hall, Fisher Street entrance

Chris Rowlands and Nicki Myers of Ovesco

How can Lewes to reduce energy costs and carbon emissions, especially in conservation areas? Community Energy Company Ovesco (Ouse Valley Climate Action) is helping residents with advice to generate energy and become more energy efficient. OVESCO knows that more homes are installing PV, heat pumps, batteries and EV charging points. But local energy generation needs to be delivered with energy efficiency for a low carbon future and this requires existing homes to retrofit. The solutions can be complex especially in a conservation area where we need to protect the character of Lewes as well as the environment. The need to work together to find affordable solutions for everyone has never been more important as we adapt to climate change.

Find out more from OVESCO and Sussex based installers OHM Energy (represented by Jason Lindfeld and Courtney Frazer-Bates) with sustainable buildings expert Suzy Nelson, architect Ian MacKay from Deeper Green.

The talk and panel discussion will start at around 8.15pm, following the Friends of Lewes AGM which begins at 7.30 pm. The AGM is for members-only but non-members can attend the talk by paying £4 on the door.
