Helping Students Save Money and Live Sustainably
Reading Student Union (RSU) operates an Energy Advice Service, supported by the University’s sustainability team, as part of RSU’s wider advice provision. The service is designed to help students living in private rented accommodation use energy more efficiently. By doing so, students can reduce energy costs and minimise energy waste, contributing to more sustainable living.
The service provides advice on both no-cost and low-cost measures to save energy. In addition, it handles specific energy-related enquiries from students, offering tailored guidance based on the property and the particular question. To make an enquiry, please complete the initial enquiry form on the RSU advice website, which can be found here.
For further information, you can also read our blog on the launch of the service. The blog explains how this initiative supports students in saving energy and reducing costs.
