Fernham villager develops energy-saving website

Fernham villager Faizcy Hope Lumley has developed energytariff.co.uk, an energy calculator website for domestic appliances, which allows people to choose the most efficient products and tariffs.

The site provides the electricity consumption figures for huge numbers of appliances currently available on the UK and European markets, and has the potential to save people a lot of money when purchasing new appliances.

The site has been reviewed in a number of online publications, such as The Times, The Ecologist and Carbon Commentary, which is authored by Chris Goodall, columnist for the Independent on Sunday and and the Guardian.

Chris Goodall wrote: "This site, developed by Faizcy Hope Lumley, is a wonderful piece of work, thorough, complete, intuitive, and useful." Well done, Faizcy!
