What's inside
Learn about energy bills, solar, heat pumps and energy efficiency through short, practical lessons.

Before switching energy tariffs, buying a smart thermostat or investing in solar panels, you can understand where your household energy is going. With this course, you will learn that the simplest way to reduce energy bills is to use less energy in the first place.
Your EPC rating can influence your energy bills, home value and access to energy efficiency grants. This course explains how EPC ratings work, what your score means, what determines your ratings, and the improvements you can make to increase it.
