Web Design - NEP

The Nottingham Energy Partnership is a local charity whose mission is to reduce carbon emissions, improve household energy efficiency and tackle fuel poverty. So this was a project that closely aligned with our own values.

The NEP house is fully interactive. Click on numerous features to discover facts about how you can make your property more efficient.

The widget keeps a running tally of how much money and energy you can save each time you choose a greener upgrade.

Your options are explained clearly, giving you an accurate breakdown of your projected annual savings.

At the end of the process, you can save a report that details all the changes you can make in your property. Visit the NEP site and try it for yourself!

PROJECT

A project can help you reach your goals quickly and cost-efficiently. We run our projects using WAgile project management.

THE CLIENT

The NEP is an independent, Queen’s Award winning climate change charity and registered Home Improvement Agency delivering projects that tackle fuel poverty, increase household energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions.

THE GOAL

NEP came to us asking for an interactive animated feature on their website that would help homeowners and landlords save energy and money by making green-conscious decisions about their property.

THE SOLUTION

The web-based widget we designed and developed is fun and educational. It allows users to navigate around the NEP house, learning about all the many ways they can save energy and money by making big and small changes.

THE TEAM

The hero that is Paul handled this one pretty much single-handedly. As a pro web developer with a specialism in web animation, and as someone with a passion for sustainable living, he was the perfect one for the job.

WE SAID

The NEP is a great client for us. We love working with charities because it helps us to feel like we're doing something good in the world. Their mission and values are very closely aligned with our own, and the project was a fun diversion from standard web design projects due to the animated and interactive elements.

THE OUTCOME

The NEP house provides homeowners and landlords a roadmap for positive, practical change that will actually make a difference. It demystifies the science behind energy efficiency and provides actionable goals and tangible benefits.
