Kilcock SEC

Kilcock SEC Our Vision is to be a leading community
in energy efficiency, retrofitting & renewable energy

We seek to engage the wider community in the
conversation around energy efficiency, smart energy & using renewable energy sources. We will partner with Kildare County Council to produce an Energy Master Plan for the community, which will allow us to envision the energy transition in a real and active way within our community. Our focus will be on practical aspects of retrofits for home heating &

more sustainable transport options for the people of Kilcock. We will examine opportunities for future projects that will create social & economic benefits for future generations
We will work together .... by engaging with all members of our community & our community energy mentor on what tools & services are available to make us more energy aware & how the options available can be used to save money & energy, & to provide a framework towards low carbon living for everyone in Kilcock.....We commit to active learning by looking at how we use energy & what energy we use. We will examine where savings can be made on an individual & collective basis. We will actively follow other community energy developments through the SEC Network & see if & how they are replicable in Kilcock

Kilcock SEC & Kilcock SVP collaborated with EnergyCloud to supply free tanks of hot water to a household in Kilcock that were struggling with their energy bills.

EnergyCloud (https://energycloud.org/ireland/) Ireland is a registered Irish charity tackling energy poverty while stopping renewable energy that the grid can’t accommodate from being wasted.

For a household experiencing energy poverty, the impact is practical and immediate: a tank of hot water, a warm shower, lower energy costs and one less expense to worry about.

At the request of Kilcock Sustainable Energy Community (SEC) the Kilcock Society of St. Vincent de Paul (SVP) identified a family struggling with electricity costs and, together with Kilcock SEC, introduced them to the EnergyCloud programme. Following an assessment of the home, EnergyCloud installed a smart immersion controller, enabling the household to benefit from free tanks of hot water when energy is made available through the programme. It is important to note that the smart immersion does not need wifi and has normal controls similar to standard a immersion.

The pilot demonstrates a simple but powerful idea: renewable energy that might otherwise be wasted has the potential to be used for social good.

The Kilcock pilot demonstrates what can be achieved when local communities, charities and the energy sector work together.
