New efficient heating solutions to help vulnerable residents in Bury
A local council has taken active steps to help local residents keep warm in their homes and save money on their energy bills, a recent news report in the local media has been able to find.
Bury Council has implemented an array of measures to reduce fuel poverty, secure improvements to council housing and improve energy efficiency, including the creation of a fuel poverty fund which enabled the 95 new boilers to be installed.
Cllr Rishi Shori, deputy leader of the council and cabinet member for finance and housing, said: “Working with other agencies, the council is doing a lot to tackle this important issue. Using European funding, we will be investigating the possibility of setting up a green energy company which looks at the generation of power using renewable sources such as wind, hydro and solar power.
“The aim is to break the monopoly of the big six energy providers and provide local people with as cheap energy bills as possible. The proposed completion date for the research and investigations is 2020.
“In the meantime, people are being helped to live in warmer homes by having the right advice, being supported to improve their homes and cut their energy bills. By helping residents keep warm affordably, this reduces the risk of falls and the impact of cold related illnesses with a view to lessening the demand on local health services.”
