With energy costs, carbon reduction and the transition to net zero continuing to present challenges, community energy projects offer parish and town councils an opportunity to make a tangible difference locally. By bringing residents, businesses and community organisations together, councils can help develop locally led solutions that reduce carbon emissions, improve energy resilience and deliver lasting benefits for their communities.
But where do you start, what makes a successful community energy project, and how can parish and town councils secure the support and funding needed to make their ambitions a reality?
This event will explore the opportunities for parish and town councils to support and deliver community energy initiatives. You'll hear real examples of successful projects, good practice and discover what makes community energy work. There will be insights into the wider policy landscape, the potential impact of community energy projects and possible funding opportunities.
Whether your parish or town council is already exploring community energy or simply wants to understand what's possible, you'll leave with practical ideas and inspiration to help turn local ambition into action.
