Are your energy bills so high they've got you feeling down? Maybe you're wondering where that draught is coming from or why it's so hard to regulate the temperature inside your home?

Are your energy bills so high they've got you feeling down? Maybe you're wondering where that draught is coming from or why it's so hard to regulate the temperature inside your home?

Or maybe your home feels (dare we say it) MOIST?

The truth is that there are lots of things that contribute to how healthy a home feels, and how well it functions.

That is why Wellington City Council, in partnership with us (Sustainability Trust), offer free personalised home energy plans specific to your home.

The end goal is to arm you with all the info you need to create the healthy home you deserve. We can even check to see if your home is solar or EV ready.

We also offer a behaviour-based home energy assessment for tenants. This assessment helps tenants maintain a healthy home with low energy bills.

What are you waiting for? Book in for a free assessment today.

- There means the opposite of here; “at that place.”
- They’re is a contraction of “they are” or “they were.”
- Their means “belongs to them.”

So I gave out a lot of parcels of those to anyone I knew who needed it.”

We are now LIVE with three exciting plans, alongside Let's Get Wellington Moving, that will transform how we live, invigorate our city, and create attractive transport choices that help to reduce our carbon emissions.

Consultations are now open, so have your say on Our City Tomorrow!

⭐ Let’s Get Wellington Moving – Mass Rapid Transit: Public transport that moves more people, more conveniently and comfortably.

⭐ Paneke Pōneke – Bike Network Plan: Our goal is to be a city where it’s easy for people of all ages and abilities to choose low or zero carbon transport options. Creating a connected bike network in tandem with big public transport improvements will make that possible.

⭐ Draft District Plan: The District Plan is the city’s planning rule book. It addresses key issues through new planning settings such as controls for quality housing, enabling development and protecting the city’s natural environment.

I can be a little wary in new situations and meeting new people, so would love an experienced and patient home. One that has the time to put in the extra training I need as I have not had much. I am very food motivated so will pick things up quickly. I can be very puppy like when comfortable around my people so require a home with older teenagers or an only adult home, one that is confident around larger than life personalities. The team here have mixed me with other dogs, so I could go to a home with an existing dog. One that is social and has a similar play style to me. A dog that is happy to share their space and their humans. I have yet to be cat tested. If you think I am the dog for you please contact the canine team for more information."

Please see us at any of the multiple venues in the Wellington area.

Buying now at a venue near you deal with the specialists.
