Over 400 members of the public were the first to visit the eagerly awaited South West Energy Centre, at White Rock, Long Road, Paignton during its Launch Day recently. The day was a fantastic success – the Centre, which is part of South Devon College, was buzzing with people interested in reducing their energy costs, seeking out new technologies and seeing renewable technologies in action. The Centre is now open for individuals, community representatives and businesses to drop in, phone or email the Centre to find out more from experts about anything energy related. Those interested can contact the Centre by emailing [email protected] or ringing 01803 540725 Other popular attractions were the demonstration of straw bale construction by TSC Transition Homes and the almost zero carbon Passivhaus. Paddy McNevin, the Centre Director, led the very well attended tours of the Centre and Passivhaus. Regen SW gave a Masterclass on the potential for the energy sector in the South West, and the Centre’s own Svet Stoykov gave a fascinating talk on the Passivhaus construction and its low carbon credentials. The South West Energy Centre project is part financed by the South West European Regional Development Fund Competitiveness and Employment Programme 2007 to 2013, as well as the Regional Growth Fund and the Skills Funding Agency.
