Mike and Liz Bourke installed solar PV panels over 10 years ago. Now they share their energy use and household carbon footprint, so we can think about how we might reduce our carbon emissions.

In the attached note, their records show how they have steadily introduced further changes to their energy use. And what more could be done. It sounds complicated. But like all programmes which open a door into other people’s homes, it’s a fascinating read.
