Read the @communityenergyldn.bsky.social report on the current status and potential for community energy in south London - including our Woodside Academy, Bexley projects se24.co.uk/2025/07/25/c...

In June, our systems produced 40,259 kWh of solar electricity — a fantastic result. Here’s what that means in real-world terms:

SE24 are recruiting a new non-executive chair. If that’s you, find out more below, or please share with anyone you think would be interested. se24.co.uk/2025/04/02/s...

WE DID IT! 🥳 We met our minimum target of £120k! This will allow us to install solar panels on all three of our community locations however if we were to meet our maximum target of £340k, we could do a lot more! #london #croydon #communityenergy #solarpanels #localinvestment #renewableenergy

If you are involved in community energy, consider coming along to our comics co-creation workshops in London (9 May) or Manchester (10 May) to share experiences and learn from others. No art experience needed! Travel bursaries available for those outside these cities! Pls share!

So many of you have invested in our solar share offer and Paul Hallas from @se24.bsky.social is one of them. If you agree with Paul, please invest before the closing date. #communityenergy #croydoncommunityenergy #croydon #renewableenergy #sustainability #climateaction #london

"Not just popular projects – they are a popular concept." "62% of the public would support a community-owned renewable energy project in their area, compared to 40% support for a privately-owned project, according to polling by Common Wealth." @bigissue.com buff.ly/PiCN8bb

Since early 2024, community energy projects in England have benefited from a £10 million Government fund. But with the money set to run out in May, there is still no certainty over the fund’s future ...

In the last month our solar sites have produced 7,940.12 KWH of clean energy for schools and community buildings in South London. That’s the equivalent of taking a petrol car off the road for 9,000 miles, planting around 90 trees or more than 100,000 cups of tea brewed!

Surround yourselves with Dereks, not Matts.

🚨 Only 16% of students feel adults are doing enough on climate change. That's why we need action! Our programme is having an impact: 95% of teachers say it has influenced their school's climate response & schools saw an average 30% increase in carbon-reducing actions. #EduSky #climateeducation

The famous @adrianhiel.bsky.social / @mliebreich.bsky.social ladder re-used: Interesting way of presenting energy flexibility opportunities focusing on CAPEX, effort, and potential for automation. General line: home heating and EV charging are very well placed to provide flexibility already today.

🌏 From behaviour change to public consent for new renewable energy infrastructure, communities' buy-in is essential to the Government's plan for clean power by 2030. Community energy provides a route through these knotty challenges.

Energy network companies pocket £4 billion in excess profits from cost-of-living crisis, says @citizensadvice.bsky.social buff.ly/LawF5cA Sign the petition - Give us back our £4bn! buff.ly/PSKDXmD ✍🏼

The @mcsfoundation.bsky.social has launched their 2025 #grants call for #retrofit projects enhancing #energyefficiency or renewable #energy in UK homes, with grants up to £50,000. This supports their mission for carbon neutrality. More info:

THE FASTEST GROWING HEAT PUMP MARKET IN THE WORLD: The UK heat pump market grew by 63% in 2024. As far as I know it is currently the fastest growing heat pump market in the world.

📢 The 2025 State of the Sector survey is OPEN! We need every community energy org to log in & update their data by 17 March. It only takes a few minutes, but the impact lasts all year! 🌍 More data = More influence, more investment, and more support. communityenergyengland.org/pages/state-...

Why is climate education not mainstream? Join the conversation - led by our friends @ministryofeco.bsky.social #EduSky

What is community energy? It’s local people owning and controlling renewable energy, lowering bills and tackling climate change. We're supporting the Local Power Plan to help put power back in the hands of communities.

Have been asked I push community-owned energy so much. Not only is it popular and delivering immense value, but it helps build strong grassroots political networks. In a world of rapid change, economic extraction and political chaos, ownership and organising are two sides of an important coin

Loving the @commenergyengland.bsky.social State of the Sector 2024 infographic. It does a great job of explaining what community energy is and does. communityenergyengland.org/files/docume...
