SPACE4 Discussion Event
About this event
Community energy is about people and communities taking democratic control over their energy future, by understanding, generating, using, owning and saving energy in their communities, as well as working together across regions and nationally.
The sector appears to offer a route towards systemic change in the energy sector and beyond; community energy projects are predominantly organised as cooperatives with shared benefits (collectively owned and controlled), they organise people into action in their own communities, and they prioritise the creation of renewable energy and education around it.
But what do these projects actually look like? How do they work? And can they really contribute to solving our multifaceted crises - climate, cost of living, economic?
In collaboration with Repowering London, this event brings together stakeholders in the community energy sector to answer these questions and advocate for the sector’s importance.
