Energy efficiency schemes should focus on the poor, researchers argue

The energy efficiency schemes launched across the US should focus primarily on people in "fuel poverty", a researcher from the Energy Policy Institute in Chicago has argued recently.

His research paper suggests that offering people money to inconvenience themselves on behalf of the environment will be taken most seriously by the poor.

The report recommends future programmes to target lower-income customers directly, particularly in areas with hot summers.

HeatingSave — helping tackle fuel poverty by optimizing energy use

Significant savings can only be truly achieved when implementing a solution designed to optimize energy consumption across the board, whether we're talking about electricity or gas.

This is exactly where HeatingSave system might prove its worth, since our solution allows customers to achieve immediately savings of up to 30%+ on their energy bills. This is achieved by optimizing the energy consumption levels within any building with the help of an advanced heat-loss algorithm that creates a specific profile for any building and based on that, switches heating on later if its warm and off earlier if its cold.

It also automatically adjusts your boiler depending on how warm it is outside — save up to another 10%.

Furthermore, the system also offers an advanced automatic occupancy detection system that allows the temperature to reduce to a background when areas are not used and quickly brought up to temperature when they are being used.
