The Green Aisle
We’ve partnered with Smart Energy GB to launch ‘The Green Aisle’, a new space you can find online and in our stores that puts a range of our most environmentally friendly and energy-efficient products all in one place, making it easier to make greener choices when shopping with us.
With the season changing and temperatures dropping, we know you’ll be looking for quick and easy upgrades to make your homes comfortable this winter.
We also know that almost three quarters of you are eager to make your homes more energy efficient and that is why we’re rolling out 'The Green Aisle' across Homebase stores in the UK and online from 6 October.
We’ve brought together a list of products, as well as information on smart meters which help you to take steps to reduce your energy use, to support you on your journey to becoming greener. Why not visit one of our Green Aisles? You can find them in Birmingham Selly Oak, Bridgend, Edinburgh Craigleith, Haringey and Leeds Moor Allerton, while other stores will have aisle ends full of the same products.
Team members will also be on hand throughout our stores if you want to know more about the small changes you can make to have a big impact on your home’s energy efficiency.

Smart Meters
Smart meters help you reduce your energy use and save money. Each smart meter installation is a step towards Britain’s low carbon future. By 2050 our energy needs will double but smart meters will help our energy system cope with this increased demand.
Smart meters will help reduce £650 million of energy waste, updating our energy system to provide smarter, greener home technology. Energy efficiency measures at home could save 2,141kg of CO2e emissions, enough energy to power lights in 27 homes for a year.
If you’re interested in getting a smart meter installed, contact your energy supplier today. You can find your supplier here.
