Cornwall Low Carbon Energy Advice Network
Funded by The National Lottery Community Fund and in partnership with Cornwall Climate Action Network, our Cornwall Low Carbon Energy Advice Network team provides free, expert, independent advice and support for homeowners, landlords, businesses and communities looking to use energy better, to enjoy energy efficient homes as part of a more sustainable, low carbon future.
Your Retrofit journey
You might have heard of the term retrofit recently – it simply means adding energy efficient solutions to transform your home towards a low carbon future.
Solutions include:
- insulation
- solar PV
- solar thermal
- heat pumps
By investing in renewable technology, you can look forward to reducing your home’s running costs, saving carbon emissions and futureproofing your home in a more self-sufficient way.
Why retrofit?
- You may be looking to make your home a more comfortable space all year round, keeping warm and dry in the winter and cool and calm in the summer.
- Or perhaps you’ve found your forever home and want to secure its future and live more sustainably for years to come.
- You might be a landlord looking to improve the EPC rating on your property, find solutions for issues like damp, mould and condensation, so you can attract long-term tenants who will be happy and comfortable in their new home.
With Community Energy Plus on board, your retrofit journey should be easier and you can become your own energy expert for your home, prioritising what to do first, when and how.

Funding from The National Lottery Community Fund has helped us in offering free, impartial low carbon energy advice and support to our community and without this funding, our project would not be possible. We also thank our partner, Cornwall Climate Action Network for their support in this project. Thank you to Stoke Climsland Parish Council for the use of their retrofit video.
