Get started as an energy coach! (5 to 40 hours per week)

As an energy savings coach, you help tenants and homeowners save energy. You do this by giving advice on energy use. You visit agreed addresses and neighborhoods. You visit these people for a personal conversation. And give them tips about their energy consumption. You ask questions such as, "Do you have draft strips?", "How high is the heating?", "Do you know what you use in energy each month?".

Together with the resident(s), you walk the through the home and see where they can still save money. You make a list of things they need. Together you also place two things that help save energy, such as draft strips. Everything you do is saved on a tablet in the WoonWijzerWinkel system.
