More energy saving kits at Knox Libraries

Knox City Council has announced due to high interest in borrowing the My Energy and Water Saver, they have introduced three more kits at Eastern Regional Libraries networks for a total of six available kits.

Designed to help households save energy costs by identifying causes of high electricity and water usage, the kit consists of a thermal imaging camera, power meter, stopwatch, thermometer, CSIRO Home Energy Saving Handbook and an instruction guide.

The initiative is a partnership between Knox, Maroondah and Yarra Ranges Council, with the kits been borrowed 32 times since January.

Knox households account for 18% of total greenhouse emissions in our community,” Knox City Council said.

“This initiative is supported by our Climate Response Plan 2021-2031, which aims to help our community lower emissions, and reach net zero by 2040.”

Kits can be reserved to loan at https://yourlibrary.spydus.com/cgi-bin/spydus.exe/FULL/WPAC/BIBENQ/65008155/12953842,1
