This year, as part of our campaign to help improve the efficiency of heating systems across the UK and reduce carbon emissions, Drayton is sponsoring the first ‘Keeping Homes Warm For Less’ online conference, hosted by The Heating Hub and supported by Low Carbon Homes. The conference will focus on easy boiler tweaks that can reduce gas bills and help tackle the cost-of-living crisis.

As part of Schneider Electric, an Impact Company, at Wiser we're comitted to a holistic approach to sustainability.

The Wiser Home app has a brand-new feature, an intelligent energy dashboard that provides more personalised data than ever, helping households across the UK in the battle to save energy and money.
For homeowners, adding smart home technology can feel complex, but we believe understanding energy use should be simple, especially in a world where cost of living is increasing. Wiser does the hard work for you with Insights+.

With Ofgem’s early announcement this morning regarding the energy price cap, Drayton is urging installers to help educate concerned homeowners on ways in which they can reduce their energy bills.
The new price cap of £1,971, which has risen by more than 50%, was announced by Ofgem and will start from 1 April this year, with the record hike coming as wholesale gas prices soar.

We all want to go forward into 2022 positively after another tough year in 2021, but positive news of fewer Covid cases and restrictions easing was overshadowed by crippling energy price rises.

Helping installers to educate their customers on how they can get more efficiency gains, this month Drayton will be hosting a live expert panel, covering everything they’ll need to know about low flow temperatures.
Taking place on Thursday 27th January at 7pm on The Drayton Community Facebook group, Drayton will be joined by Richard Burrows, Kim Betty, Jo Alsop, Paul Hull and Rob Berridge, who will be sharing their knowledge on this hot topic.

New research has been released as UK gas prices soar by 40% to record highs. As the heating industry rises to the challenge of long-term decarbonisation and supporting households hit by higher energy costs, what can be done in the short term to lower heating costs and carbon emissions?

From energy price rises to COP26, the way in which we use energy is big news.

On 19th October 2021, the government launched its much anticipated Heat and Buildings Strategy, and it notes that we need nothing less than a revolution in heating markets and skills during this decade to decarbonise UK buildings.

At Drayton by Schneider Electric we welcome the Government’s Heat and Buildings Strategy published today. Buildings are responsible for 20% of all UK carbon emissions, therefore this Strategy is an essential step on the UK’s road to Net Zero by 2050. With COP 26 just around the corner, the policies announced today demonstrate the UK’s desire to lead from the front in tackling climate change, and we look forward to seeing them followed through.
