For the last couple of years we’ve done so many apps, viral games and social media campaigns that people have started to forget our heritage as a web design agency! So we’re absolutely delighted after a long hiatus, to present our latest website launch for the Energy Bill Revolution.

The Energy Bill Revolution is a campaign calling on the Government to use the money it gets from carbon tax revenue to make UK homes super-energy efficient.

Groundbreaking analysis undertaken by energy efficiency experts Camco has calculated that on average the Government will raise £4 billion a year in carbon taxes over the next 15 years. They estimate that if this revenue were recycled to households to spend on energy efficiency measures, it would be enough to bring 9 out of 10 households out of fuel poverty. It could also be used to create 200,000 jobs and quadruple carbon emission cuts compared to the Government’s new energy efficiency schemes.

The new research also presents the most up-to-date assessment of the number of households in fuel poverty today and the number of households at risk in the future. It finds that 6.4 million households are now suffering from fuel poverty across the UK, meaning they need to spend more than 10% of their income to keep their homes warm.

The research reveals the risk that fuel poverty could affect 9.1 million households by 2016, the year in which the Government has a target to eliminate fuel poverty. This is a potential rise of 40% which would increase the number of UK households in fuel poverty from one in four to one in three.

“We were delighted to be selected by Transform UK to develop the web presence for the Energy Bill Revolution. The website petition means that people can instantly get involved and lobby government to help eradicate fuel poverty.” said TAMBA CEO, Kay Hammond.
