 Introduction to the topic

 How can we continue to use energy in a responsible way?

 Main point: Pay attention to education!

 Topics: Energy access in schools, Water preservation and Heating systems

 Some practicies in use
 Luis Vives, Leganes: EcoLab program includes charging point
for electric vehicles through photovoltaic electricity, a study
container, that has the latest technology, is linked to the same
solar energy panels and has mechanical ventilation with heat
recovery, a system of recovery for gray water.
 St Joseph's infants, Croydon: Sells the excess electricity
created by its solar panels back to the national grid. A display
unit allows pupils and visitors to monitor energy production,
giving children the chance to learn about the environment,
technology and economics.
 Beaumont primary, Suffolk: Installed a wind turbine two years
ago that generates enough electricity each day to run all the
computers in the ICT suite. The children have taken on board
the whole concept of renewable energy, they will use the
knowledge and understanding that they have gained to improve
their future.
