Summary
The UK government is consulting on the design of the future energy system, to determine new rules and regulations around how we buy, sell and manage our energy. It is vital that the voices of community energy groups are heard and that the value they can bring is fully considered in these plans.
Our manifesto sets out 3 asks from the government to ensure that the energy system of the future is realised. To support the manifesto, prominent Impact Investors and grant makers wrote to the minister Claire Perry.
This manifesto page was launched alongside a new Green Alliance report on community energy.
