Northern Ireland Economy Minister has launched a ‘Save Energy,
Save Money' information campaign which aims to lower energy bills
through energy efficiency.
Funded by the Department for the Economy and delivered by the
Consumer Council, the campaign will run until March 2025. The
campaign aims to help consumers save money on their bills through
energy efficiency advice and information whilst also increasing
public understanding about the transition to net zero in Northern
Ireland.
Minister Murphy said: “I am delighted to launch this
‘Save Energy, Save Money' campaign being delivered by the
Consumer Council. As we face into the cold winter months ahead,
it's vitally important consumers have access to trusted energy
efficiency advice and information that will reduce their bills
and carbon footprint. As decarbonisation is central to my
economic plans, I welcome the campaign's ambition to increase
consumer awareness about our journey towards achieving net
zero.”
Speaking about the campaign, Noyona Chundur, Chief Executive of
the Consumer Council, said: “We know that energy bills remain a
real challenge for many. We use most of our heating and
electricity over the colder months, so delivering the ‘Save
Energy, Save Money' campaign will empower consumers to make
essential changes in their own homes to save money on their
energy bills, reduce their energy consumption and contribute to a
sustainable future. We appreciate Minister Murphy and the
Department for the Economy supporting this campaign.”
The campaign includes energy toolkits for electricity, natural
gas, and home heating oil customers, keeping your home warm
information guides, energy price comparison tools, an appliance
cost checker tool and energy efficiency advice videos. As well as
digital support, the campaign involves significant community
engagement across the region.
