The National Trust is a charity completely independent of government with the aim of looking after special places “for ever, for everyone”. In North Devon we look after close to 50 miles of coastline, and over 4000 acres of woodland. As a charity we are committed to looking after special places for the long term, and responsible energy use is a key priority for us with the organisation committing to generate 50% of our energy from renewable sources by 2020. In North Devon, over the last 5 years we have introduced solar PV, air source heat pumps and LED lighting, with the aim to completely remove our dependence on oil as fuel – not an easy challenge when one of those locations is a lighthouse!
