Guest Avenue, Emersons Green

Guest Avenue have added solar panels, a Tesla battery, and a Tepeo Zero Emissions Boiler, along with energy-saving upgrades like secondary glazing, insulation, and a partial mechanical ventilation system.

By using electricity during the off-peak period, their yearly energy bill is under £1000 a year, and they make even more back thanks to a Feed-in Tariff.

No longer connected to gas, they’re excited to share their journey with you at the ELCoE Green Open Homes Day.

Energy measures at Guest Avenue:

• Zero emissions boiler

Please note there is no step-free access to the house, however there is step-free access to the garden from which the solar panels can be viewed.
