Energy Saving Homes
Please check opening times and also whether to 'just drop in' or 'book ahead' for each listing.
Oxford Preservation Trust is again hosting Energy Saving Homes this September! Visit a home in your neighbourhood or across Oxford to find out how the homeowner upgraded their house to make it warmer in winter, cooler in summer, and cheaper to run!
Energy Saving Homes is managed by Low Carbon Oxford North on behalf of Communities for Zero Carbon Oxford, a collective of community groups working to take practical steps to address climate change. The Oxford wide program is designed to encourage residents to improve the energy efficiency of their homes through both large and small measures. Energy Saving Homes was established in 2022 when it also had a stall at Energy Saving Fair at Oxford Town Hall which gave a series of talks, films and advice booklets for householders, tenants and landlords.
