On this page we capture some resources that have been shared with us. You will find links to advice, networks, tools, local strategies and funding that may be useful for local households, communities, and businesses wanting to reduce their energy use or develop local energy or climate projects. Please note, we cannot vouch for them, but they appear relevant to the local area supported by Burnham & Weston Energy. If you know of any other links we should include, please get in touch.

Climate Tools

There is a mixture of tools here that can help you understand your own carbon footprint, or that of your community or business. While not energy specific, you will also find some guides to climate actions and projects that could benefit your community and the environment.
