Engagement & planning


We know we need to invest in working together to tackle the climate emergency, but how?

Nearly all the solutions to the energy crisis already exist: building highly insulated homes, using less, and getting our heat and energy from local renewable sources.

It is as much about people and communities as it is about technology.

We’ve created community engagement approaches and resources helping local communities design and push for changes they want to see.

This includes through the planning system, the development of local energy projects and local democratic participation and engagement.
