Join the people shaping the future of energy
We bring together volunteers across the UK to try out new energy products and ideas in their homes, and get rewarded for doing so.
We want to transform the way we all use energy so it’s greener, cheaper and works better for everyone. Your experiences help make that possible.
What’s in it for you?
Be among the first to try new green technology
Get paid for taking part and sharing honest feedback
Help shape how new ideas are developed and tested
Make future energy solutions work for everyone
What to expect...
It only takes a few minutes.
Answer a few questions so we know a bit more about you.
Share data from your energy devices, like a smart meter, if you have one.
You’ll be paid for this.
We’ll tell you what we’re learning and how it's making energy better.
"It gives me an idea of what other people are doing and what I could do to help make a difference."

Why we need you
We need real people to test new energy ideas, and everyone’s welcome.
New ideas might work in a lab, but only real households can show us what works in everyday life. Whatever your home or setup, whether you rent or own, energy needs to work for all of us.
And if you ever need anything, we’re here with simple, friendly guidance.
