The Green Mole Forum has now started a loan scheme of Energy Meters across Mole Valley in conjunction with Mole Valley Disctrict Council.

Meters are available for a two week loan from Anne Brewer in Dorking, Derek Smith in Leatherhead and Esther Phillips-Constans in Bookham.

We have so far a waiting list of 22 people and the first meters have now gone out on loan. Richard M. from the Green Mole Forum probably holds the record for having signed up most people at our stall on Bookham village day. Well done!

The first device measures power demand of individual appliances (Dear I hope I get this right as my physics were never brilliant). The second one (much more fun) is a whole house meter.  Once plugged in it measures and displays the consumption of the whole house and also displays the running costs. We tried it for two weeks and it is great fun and gives you quite an incentive to chase around in the evening to switch off everything but the fridge.

Should you wish to be added to the waiting list or know somebody who lives in Mole Valley and could do with a carbon diet, please contact us via the Forum.
