country
United Kingdom
Goal
"Aims to reduce domestic energy losses, at low cost. This saves money and reduces our carbon emissions and it improves the comfort and health of low-income families, helping them to avoid fuel poverty." "The aim of The CHEESE Project is to reduce domestic heat losses. We do this by performing detailed surveys of homes using low-cost thermal imaging equipment to identify areas where simple but effective remedial action can be taken. It is estimated that 30% of heating losses are due to drafts, which can be fixed cheaply and easily when they have been identified. We record energy consumption before and after a survey, to verify the impact of our work."
