Virtual presentation on the 'energy revolution'

Friday, 19 June 2020 14:29

Sustainable Hayfield has organised a virtual presentation on the 'energy revolution'.

Looking at the role of communities in the ‘electrification of the UK’, it will be given by power expert Richard Noakes.

He said: “The electricity market is both changing and growing. 

“Who’d have thought a few years back that what we pay for our electricity will vary half hour by half hour, that we’d never have to read our meters again, or that we might be paying our bills to a company based in our community. 

“But these things are already happening on a small scale and are set to grow, with government backing. 

“I’ll be looking at what we might expect from the future.”

The free presentation is at 7pm on Thursday, June 25, and anyone can get involved.

  • The signs they are a changin'

    It was the end of an era at Whitfield Community Centre this week as the old Derbyshire County Council signage was removed to make way for new ones. Whitfield Together, the group that bought the Centre for the community, is refreshing the Centre's image. Its new logo will soon go up on the front of the building. Gerry Dominey told us, "It seemed like a significant moment when we took the sign down. It was as if we were saying that the Centre is ours now and we can put our paw print on it. And that felt good."
