But a good few others, including Cornwall Council who organised the show (as far as I'm aware).
I was mostly in the conference room with speakers on community renewable projects including speakers from WREN (Wadebridge), PURE & FREE (which are from 2 other Cornish areas.

I'm at the early stages of setting up a transition / community renewable etc. project in my own Cornwall parish of Perranzabuloe and got lots of information and contacts.]]> http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=9388&Focus=152824#Comment_152824 http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=9388&Focus=152824#Comment_152824 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 22:52:03 +0100 SteamyTea I was very impressed by the Council stand/s, but then they have a good girl working for them now.
The BC people where very good as well, got lots of free advice and offers of more if needed.

Not sure about Mathews latest electric car, the diddy one though.]]> http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=9388&Focus=152860#Comment_152860 http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=9388&Focus=152860#Comment_152860 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 18:21:43 +0100 seascape
Agree that Cornwall Council stand was very good - had a series of Renewable Energy Planning guidance notes, ie the development of heat pumps, solar pv and thermal, AD, hydro,biomass and deep geothermal all available to down load from their website. Had good stuff for self builders re building control, LABC guides and pre-application Planning and Building Control Advice.

Didn't try the coffee though.

I spoke to a planner about the thorny issue of installing domestic renewables on properties in an AONB - he said it's a national problem, but I should look for either Local Development Orders or Neighbourhood Development Orders - in some cases these extend certain development rights to a given area ie Penzance apparently]]> http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=9388&Focus=152873#Comment_152873 http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=9388&Focus=152873#Comment_152873 Sat, 28 Jul 2012 09:06:09 +0100 SilverSpray - no recycling for waste, just one big bin for all rubbish.
- seperate bins for next years event would be a nice little touch / improvement.]]>
