What is community energy?

What do we mean by ‘community energy’?

We mean clean energy systems owned by local people, run for local people. 

We mean everyone in a community having access to affordable, renewable energy.

We mean warm homes, low bills, and energy security. 

A community energy project could be a solar power array on a local school, a neighbourhood energy efficiency scheme, or an initiative to tackle fuel poverty.

BHESCo are one of 600 community energy organisations in the UK, working tirelessly to decarbonise their communities and make energy bills affordable for all.

The UK Government has recognised that the community energy sector is vital for bringing the benefits of clean energy to regular people, ensuring that no-one is left behind in the journey away from fossil-fuels.
