Revision of Energy Workshop and Feasibility Study from Tue, 14/04/2009 - 11:07am

Dear Everyone,

Firstly, we're holding another community workshop on Saturday 2 May at the Chronic Love Foundation on Rye Lane, arrivals and light refreshments at 1.30pm, workshop running from 2-5pm.  This workshop is focused around the theme of energy use and sustainable energy supply, looking first at the national picture and then Southwark and Peckham.  As before, there will be lots of opportunities to talk with other local people and share your ideas.

It's a collaborative event with the planning team for Southwark Council's Peckham Area Action Plan, so there will also be the opportunity to discuss how the big picture of energy use and supply fits in with the possibilities for the future development of sites in Peckham.

Please register for the event, or offer to help out, by e-mailing info [at] peckhampower [dot] org

Secondly, after various meetings we've decided to commission a feasibility study into the most effective energy solutions at small neighbourhood level.  This is because this will be more effective than focusing bit by bit on individual houses.  The feasibility study will include the Northfield Estate, Blenheim Grove and Waghorn Street - please let us know if you would like your street to be included!

Looking forward to seeing you at the community energy workshop,

Best wishes,

Jack Kelly, Gordon Nardell, Anna Plodowski, Carl Reynolds, Matthew Rose and Lesley Wertheimer
