Reduce Your Use Resources
The Reduce Your Use initiative supported public bodies to run energy awareness campaigns for staff.
Energy awareness materials
Each week from October 2022, the initiative provided a weekly energy exercise for staff, supported by posters, staff webinars and information about saving energy at home.
Themes included:
- Heating
- Lighting
- Power
- Transport
- Holiday shutdowns
The initiative also provided extension activities - additional activities that energy teams could carry out such as out of hours walkthroughs, Step Up day energy saving events, meter reading and feeding back on success.
Staff webinars can be viewed again by using the links below or by going to our Reduce Your Use YouTube channel, which also includes videos produced for the Reduce Your Use Home Energy Plan.
Many of our Weekend Wisdom emails have been posted as blogs on the SEAI website.
Energy awareness materials from the Reduce your Use initiative are available to public bodies on the Reduce Your Use community of practice on our Energy Link platform.
