Environment & EnergyWe would welcome your comments on the information contained in this section HERE |
Energy EfficiencyWith the wholesale costs of electricity and gas rising considerably and the
effect of generating the energy that we need has on global warming, greenhouse
gases, fossil fuel depletion etc. We feel that it is important to do what we can
to reduce the amount of energy that the Park uses each year. 93% of all external lighting and 98% of all internal lighting in Park buildings is using lower energy fluorescent, compact fluorescent, led or son bulbs. Our aim is to use 100% energy efficient lighting and controls by the end of 2008. Many of the new holiday homes now come pre fitted with energy efficient lighting. Our aim is to supply all used stock wherever possible with compact fluorescent bulbs fitted. In our next newsletter we will be asking all owners to make the switch to low energy bulbs and look at other ways to reduce their energy usage. UPDATED 09/07/08: Our electricity supply contract expired at the end of June and since we last agreed our last supply contract wholesale electricity prices have increased by 107%. We have searched for the most competitive supplier for the next twelve months and have agreed terms. However even using the most competitive supplier our energy costs from July 1st 2008 are over two thirds higher than previously. It is imperative that we as a company and you as our customers do all that we can to reduce our energy consumption and try and keep the financial impact of these increases to a minimum. Thank you Waste & RecyclingWe currently have recycling facilities in place for glass, wood, metal, cardboard and some plastics. We are working with our waste collection company to achieve 100% of our waste not going to landfill but instead being efficiently recycled and the remainder being used to generate electricity. UPDATE 27/03/08 All general household
waste can now be
Any waste that cannot be recycled will be incinerated at a new state of the art recycling facility where the heat generated is used to produce electricity. We cannot dispose of old fridges - please take these to your local authority site who will take them free of charge and have facilities to process them safely. Scrap metal including old push bikes, is put into a specific skip for recycling separately to the general rubbish. Speak to a member of staff for details. Composting
