Visit local homes and other properties, old and new to find out how to save energy, generate your own, and save money.

Monmouthshire Community Climate Champions are a network of community groups, renewable energy companies and Monmouthshire County Council who meet quarterly to work on climate change and energy projects.

Since 2012, they have organised an annual Eco Open Doors event, where local homes and properties with renewable energy, energy saving and sustainable living features have very generously opened their doors to visitors looking for inspiration and information about how they can make their own homes more sustainable.

The great news is that most of these properties remain open by arrangement.  Just click on the Properties or Properties by Technology tabs at the top to find out how to chat to homeowners about how their technologies work, how much they cost and what they are saving, to help decide whether it would be suitable for your home.

Visitors have said “Lovely to speak to people with practical experience" and "It has been very informative and inspiring. This is the FUTURE".
