Most CoPower customers probably know by now that we’re not just an ordinary energy retailer. We’re owned by democratic member-based organisations that want to bring energy into the commons as a public good. We’re not interested in selling you as much energy as possible and making a profit from it. We’re driven, like so many of our customer-members, by a determination to make the climate and energy transformation fast and socially just.
In fact, CoPower is so little interested in selling you energy that we’re offering new services to all our customer-members to help you cut your energy use.
One of CoPower’s owner organisations, Earthworker, has recently established a new cooperative, Earthworker Smart Energy Cooperative (ESEC).
ESEC is a worker-owned cooperative that, like CoPower, is putting social justice and customer benefit at the centre of everything it does. Here are some of the services that ESEC provides:
- draught proofing
- household and business energy auditing
- household and business smart energy advice to increase the benefits from solar panels, batteries, heat-pump hot water systems and EV chargers
- Maximising household or business energy efficiency.
So, if you’re sick of living in a draughty house that’s too cold in winter and too hot in summer, need some advice on maximising the benefits of solar panels, or want to make your house or business run as energy efficiently as possible, why not contact ESEC: admin@smartenergycooperative.
As supporters of the cooperative movement, ESEC is offering CoPower customer members 10% off their draught proofing home or office assessments.
