For 11 years, Essex CC and iChoosr have partnered to drive sustainable energy initiatives that help the local community lower carbon emissions, cut energy bills, and take steps towards a more sustainable future. The partnership is vital to protect and enhance the Essex environment as set out by its Essex Climate Action Commission, and improves quality of life for local residents.
The collaboration encompasses three initiatives: Solar Together – a group-buying solar panel and battery storage scheme, Switch Together - offering access to professional and competitively priced heat pump installations, and Big Community Switch – a collective energy switching scheme to save on bills. Each aims to help residents feel comfortable and confident to make informed decisions in areas they want to act but may otherwise not, without the schemes' support.
