Transition Montpelier

Power from solar panels could earn £900, on top of £140 reduction on household energy bill!

The speaker Miguel Mendonca at our meeting next Wednesday has played an significant role in a new government scheme that cash rewards will be available for small scale low carbon electricity production via a feed-in tariff to be introduced on April 1st. This means if you installed a solar photo-voltaic system you can use the elctricity as it is produced and get paid for what is excess.

The meeting is consequently evolving into an exciting event as we anticipate a variety of local residents, businesses, faith and community buildings accross the neighbourhood attending and considering become part of this exciting development and taking up the grant offers currently available for installation or considering how we as a community can benefit.

The agenda and format for the open meeting is as follows:

• 7.30 Welcome chat / Park Group AGM in other room
• 7.45 Introduction to the evening
• 7.55 Miguel Mendonca
• 8.15 Project introductory pitches (energy, food, open spaces, steets) plus 1 minute notices on other matters
• 8.40 Tescos update
• 8.45 Project discussions work
• 9.45 Feedback end

It would be great if people could bring a cake or food to share and their own mug. We will be setting up from 5.00 and help arranging seating etc will be most appreciated.

We look forward to seeing you.
