Act4Eco – online platform for energy-conscious consumers Платформа за енергийно отговорни потребители Act4Eco

The “Act4Eco – online platform for energy-conscious consumers” Facebook group was established by ARC Fund in May 2020 to provide a virtual space for consumers to learn and share experiences on energy-related topics. Its initial aim was to promote the Act4Eco platform among energy consumers in Bulgaria. The platform has been developed within the Energy Conscious Consumers (ECO2) project and provides open-access knowledge in nine EU languages on responsible energy consumption at home. With its 260 members, the Facebook group contributed to not only increasing the traffic on the Act4Eco platform but also establishing a close Act4Eco community where interesting news on energy efficiency and energy savings is shared, along with members’ own experiences. The group provides knowledge about how to consume energy in a sustainable way by improving the energy efficiency of homes, how to self-produce energy, what habits can be changed to start saving energy in day-to-day life, and many other interesting issues related to the topic.
