is the Church of England's online system for recording energy use and measuring carbon emissions from churches and church buildings. By entering information from your electricity, gas and other fuel bills, the tool calculates your church's annual carbon footprint.
Completing the Energy Footprint Tool is a practical way to live out our faith through stewardship of God's creation and show love for our neighbours. By filling in your EFT, you enable your church to make informed, targeted decisions to reduce its carbon footprint, lower energy costs and improve the sustainability of its buildings.
The data collected also helps the ÑÇÖÞÂ鶹 of Canterbury and the wider Church of England monitor progress towards Net Zero Carbon, identify where support is needed and shape how national net zero funding is allocated. Completing the EFT is now an essential step for parishes wishing to access many Church of England funding opportunities.
Taking a few minutes each year to complete the EFT makes a valuable contribution to our shared commitment to caring for creation and building a more sustainable future.
