"It’s one of the things you don’t often hear about when you read stories on giant new wind and solar farms, or electrification. But that’s why you subscribe to The Reengineer, isn’t it?" 🤣

An eloquent and thoughtful history of the #ForestOfDean, written by a young history student at the University of York. It conveys brilliantly the unique historical context of so many of my ancestors. theyorkhistorian.com/2025/08/16/h...

Thank you @cse.org.uk for an insightful and engaging training session yesterday - Understanding #Retrofit. Looking forward to sessions 2 & 3 next week! Great to see our new banner out in the wild too 😊 #communityenergy

WOW! We're thrilled to share that we've been shortlisted for not just one, but two gongs at the #CommunityEnergy Awards 2025! 🏆 Community Energy Excellence 🤝 Collaboration in Community Energy – with our amazing partners @ethexuk.bsky.social and @younityuk.bsky.social

@thriverenewables.bsky.social have had a very good year. They’ve released their half year report and reported that their “portfolio of wind, solar and hydro projects generated 63,082 MWh of clean electricity."  #netzero #cleanenergy #renewableenergy #communityenergy #funding

This September saw a historic moment. For the first time, more EVs than fuel cars passed through 🇳🇴 Oslo city's toll ring.

We held a great energy-saving drop-in last week - read all about it here: #communityenergy www.forestcommunityenergy.org.uk/an-excellent...

At first glance this is a good and serious plan that has every chance of delivering on its twin goals of decarbonising and revitalising the economy. www.gov.uk/government/p...

Posters working in and with community energy groups:

There's a really healthy community of sustainable energy posters on here now. If you're still on the hunt for new posters to follow, here are some starter packs...🧵

🌱 A win for community energy! After sustained pressure from community groups, the Scottish Government will now make it easier for communities to develop wind, hydro, and solar projects on public land. A big step toward empowering communities to own and benefit from local clean energy! ⚡️💚

We're excited to support three more communities to develop community-owned renewable energy projects, following our Future Energy Landscapes (FEL) methodology. 🌿 Read more 👉 buff.ly/trZkrLn Or find out about how FEL helps communities develop their own energy vision 👇 #CommunityEnergy
