About us

Our service is funded by the Scottish Government and managed by Energy Saving Trust. We are committed to positively impacting the lives of people throughout Scotland. 


Our primary focus is on tackling fuel poverty and the climate emergency. We do this by giving people clear and impartial advice on making their home cheaper to heat, as well as reducing their carbon footprint - both critical priorities for the Scottish Government.
