Guidelight

Guidelight addresses a lack of understanding of LCT usages, network services like flexibility, and digital technologies to optimise energy consumption, among low-income and vulnerable households participating in local retrofit initiatives. This project is funded through the Strategic Innovation Fund, which works in three phases. If successful for a subsequent phase then the end date and other details will change.

Key deliverables

  • An Open Access Toolkit of social and technical interventions such as educational videos, vulnerability checklist, smart apps, smart sensors

Target outcomes

  • Tailored services to educate and support vulnerable customers in the energy transition

Measures of success

  • Agreed design of the toolkit with project partners
