Free energy monitor trial
Residents of Guildford Borough can now try out an energy monitor for free. The energy monitor will help you find out how much electricity you are using and if you can save money on your bills. The council, in partnership with Surrey Libraries, has introduced a free loan scheme at Ash, Guildford and Horsley libraries. For more details on the scheme please visit our energy monitor trial page.
