CONSTITUENCY BRIEFING · ENERGYMAP.APP
Eastbourne
Eastbourne has 1 MW of renewables running, enough for 500 homes over a year, and nothing large waiting in the planning queue. Britain's grid bottlenecks still add to bills here: about £92 a year per household, £4.2m across the constituency's 45,610 homes.
Ranks 466 of 650 for clean power approved and not built.
