Our work

Planning

We have around 60 projects on the go at any one time, each helping us meet our charitable goals of finding solutions to the threat of climate change and the misery of cold homes. Unless you're viewing this page on a mobile device, our projects below are organised by our work areas (home energy, local energy, research and policy analysis) and by topic.
