#13 Group together for more sunshine

Number 13 may be unlucky for some, but it's lucky for us as we explore ever more ways we can make our lives better. The sun is shining so let's talk about it.

Solar power has gone from niche to mainstream over the last few years. The plummeting cost of solar panels and their improved performance means that they can make households cheaper and cleaner to run. With battery storage, the improvements are even better—delivering power both day and night and making best use of free energy from the sun.

Group buying can make it easier

It's still a big investment. That's why it's worth looking out for local group buying schemes. By buying together, suppliers can negotiate better prices for the equipment and installation.

Group buying schemes are being launched by local councils across the country—and have already helped thousands move towards cheaper, cleaner electricity at a competitive cost.

Moving forward together

If you're thinking about going solar, keep an eye out for schemes in your area. It may help you move faster, more cheaply, towards a better source of power.

It's a long journey

The more we act, the more we share, the more we have a movement towards a healthier, safer, more prosperous future for us all.
