The Bewdley and Wyre Forest Low Carbon Community (LCC) Project- Phase 2 kicked off with a follow-up workshop, held at Bewdley Development Trust, in March 2010.

A core group of energy champions from Bewdley and Rock shared their carbon descent achievements over the last eight months. Whilst most reported a reduction in their carbon footprint, mainly due to behavioural change, one attendee reported an 18% saving on his heating bills as a result of physical change.

Not only did these champions exchange tips and learnings, but they also found out about the newly created Energy Group, which is part of Transition Bewdley.

The second half of the workshop covered the Feed-In-Tariffs and the Renewable Heat Incentive, and what it could mean to people who embrace renewable technology e.g. self-sufficiency, reduced bills and income generation.
