It's time to create a sustainable home

In the fight against climate change, there's so much we can all do to live sustainably. And it doesn't have to cost the earth. From switching to 100% renewable electricity* to installing more sustainable products - we've got plenty of ideas to make your home more eco-friendly.

What are sustainable homes?

Sustainable homes aren't about living off grid, or sitting in the cold - they're about small, energy efficient changes you can make to reduce your carbon footprint. Being sustainable at home contributes to a sustainable lifestyle - and there are plenty of ways we can help you live sustainably. From sustainable products for heating and cooling, a smart meter to help you understand how sustainably you're living or a 100% renewable electricity supply with a fixed tariff*, we've got you covered.

Why make your home more sustainable?

Sustainable living benefits you and the environment. It can help you save energy, by using smart technology to stay on top of your usage and upgrading to more sustainable products to become more efficient. The more energy you save, the lower your carbon impact. With the UK committing to carbon neutrality by 2050, green living homes are a great way to join the fight against climate change.

Does it cost more to lead a sustainable lifestyle?

We don't think it should. From switching off appliances, recycling or reusing items around your home, to living more sustainably through your diet, there's lots of cost effective ways to make your home more sustainable. Including getting your energy from a supplier who offers 100% renewable electricity with a fixed tariff*, like E.ON Next. Every customer has a dedicated Energy Specialist, like Becky, to offer account support to help you to live sustainably.
