What do we mean by community energy?
Community energy is when people combine resources to support local energy projects in the places where they live and work.
This could be a solar panel array on a local school, a neighbourhood energy efficiency scheme, or an initiative to tackle fuel poverty.
Community energy projects are designed by, owned by, and operated on behalf of the communities they serve,
