Fantastic Home

Our Carbon Forum team are busy planning the follow up to the highly successful Light Fantastic project. The new updated version will be called ‘Fantastic Home’. Fantastic Home is a mobile exhibition, which visits communities and schools. It showcases energy efficient technology and techniques, behavioural changes and renewable technology. It will have interactive elements such as a carbon countdown game for children, the energy bike and interactive aspects throughout the display. It will signpost visitors to local information and grants as well as carry generic information on all aspects of energy saving and generation. It will also be able to sign people up for home visits from professional energy efficiency installers and well as give away free energy efficiency items.
 
Fantastic Home is designed to bring these elements to people, rather than relying on people seeking them out. Its purpose is to actively show visitors practical measures that they can take themselves. It provides an engagement and education opportunity for many thousands of people that will not be reached by traditional means at the disposal of stakeholders.
 
Fantastic Home will allow people to touch, feel and interact with technology and techniques that may otherwise be surrounded in myth and mystery or simply be outside of their sphere of experience. It will enable people to fully appreciate the costs, benefits, savings and logistics of taking action on reducing and generating their own energy.
