What We Do
We help local households, businesses, and public spaces reduce energy use, lower costs, and create healthier living environments.
Whether it’s expanding solar, securing funding for those in fuel poverty, or training volunteers, everything we do is rooted in community impact and environmental responsibility.
Together, we’re making Alton a place where sustainable energy choices are simple, supported, and shared.
My Home Made Better
Thinking about solar panels but not sure where to start? Seen an advert for heat pumps but still have questions?
My Home Made Better are here to help. They offer free, tailored and impartial advice to homeowners making big decisions.
With support from all local authorities in Hampshire, Southampton and Portsmouth, they’re ready to help you make your home warmer, greener and cheaper to run.
Energy Alton are working with the Environment Centre (tEC) based in Southampton, Petersfield Climate Action Network (PCAN) and Winchester Action on the Climate Crisis (WinACC) in a collective campaign to provide free energy advice to residents across the whole of Hampshire.
The scheme, known as ‘My Home Made Better‘ to reflect the service offered to homeowners, landlords and tenants, will provide free advice to enable them to improve their comfort and lower their energy usage.
My Home Made Better is a charity-led initiative, offering completely free, expert advice to residents across Hampshire, Southampton, and Portsmouth. Whether you’re looking to improve your insulation, upgrade your heating system, or explore renewable energy options, our friendly team is here to guide you through the process.
“We only used to put the boiler on in the morning and evening, but now we’ve got better insulation and a heat pump, the house is warm and cosy all the time.”
Caroline, Winchester
