Do you want to improve the inclusivity of your community energy co-operative? Unfortunately, some of the UK’s diverse communities are under-represented within the community energy sector. Working with Repowering London and King's College London, CSE researched what causes groups to be excluded from energy co-ops. We looked at how to build the diversity of members so more people have the opportunity to be part of energy projects that shape their community. From these findings, a new Participatory Toolkit was made to help others run similar research. In this toolkit you'll find: - Our research process. - Reflections and learnings. - Useful resources. Find out our recommendations and download the toolkit 👇 https://lnkd.in/ebik59jZ Thanks to Barrow Cadbury Trust Connect Fund for its support.

We launched a new partnership with SGN today, to take aim at fuel poverty in Lambeth. We had a chance to celebrate this morning at the end of #CommunityEnergyFortnight alongside some #CommunityEnergy folks from CREW Energy, who are also kicking off a new partnership to support households in fuel poverty to the south-west of us. We'll be supporting Lambeth residents who are struggling with their energy costs today, while we're building community capacity for longer-term solutions – to ultimately provide lower-cost energy and create warmer and healthier homes for Londoners. Get in touch if you're supporting households experiencing fuel poverty in Lambeth and would like to chat about how we can work together!

As we celebrate #CEF2024 and #CoopFortnight, we can’t believe it’s been a whole year since we invited everyone to help build 5MW of new locally-owned #SolarCapacity and create a clean, local and affordable #LondonSolarCity. Is this year you'll get involved? It's so easy to make a difference. For instance by: ☀ Joining a local Community Energy Co-operative and becoming one of more than 600 Londoners bringing #SolarDividends to their neighbourhoods 👀 Helping find new roofs to host #CommunitySolar where you live 📰 Or simply signing up to our newsletter to find out about new projects and investment opportunities. Visit our website to find out more. We hope to see you soon!
