"At the core of my job is aligning Guernsey’s Electricity Strategy with the island’s 2050 Net-Zero goals.

Have you changed all your clocks and timers - including your hot water cylinder and heating? Also don't forget to check that the time on your meter has updated too. All you need to do is press the button on your electricity meter, which will be either green or orange, and scroll through the display options until you see the date and time.

Don't forget, clocks will fall back one hour this Sunday (27th October 2024). Remember to change ALL your clocks – including your hot water cylinder and heating – before you head to bed. The good news is that your electricity meter is designed to automatically update with the correct time, but it's best to double check. Just press the button on your meter, which will be either green or orange, and scroll through the display options until you see the date and time. Read our blog below for some more info👇 https://bit.ly/3NBnbiA And enjoy that extra hour in bed! 🌙 #clockchange2024 #guernseyelectricity

From Saturday, 26th October we will be carrying out emergency repair work on Le Vauquiedor. This urgent work is being carried out after identifying an issue with a high-voltage cable. It is essential that the issue is addressed quickly to maintain a secure electricity supply. We anticipate the work to be completed by Tuesday evening (29th October). Access to the PEH will be from the Route de la Croix au Bailiff end (dairy) only for the duration of our works. We apologise sincerely for any inconvenience.

Does size matter? When it comes to hot water cylinders, it very much does. If you notice your hot water isn’t lasting through the day, it might be because your hot water cylinder isn’t the right size for your household’s needs. You may need to get a larger one installed to make sure you've always got enough hot water. If your cylinder is the right size, a few simple behaviour changes can make a huge difference too. For example: Try taking shorter showers to conserve hot water⚡. A 7-minute shower can use over 100 litres of water. Do it with the lights off: 11pm to 5am🌙 #hotwatercylinders #doitwiththelightsoff
