How energy is produced, who produces it, how it is used and how much it costs are four of the most important questions of our time.

These experiences are wonderful and if you can't join in person, a little birdie mentioned this event might be recorded? Hopefully we will be able to share the link with permission from Blas Festival

I’m a director of Raasay Community Renewables so I thought I’d share our story: Raasay Community Renewables We have recently finished the construction of 2 run of the river hydro schemes with a combined rating of 137kW


A problem for all community generators - sign up to Power for People to help get the UK government to change the system.


Interesting to compare notes on exploring introduction of Energy Local co-operatives and/or private wire networks in community owned settings with Raasay Community Renewables at #CommunityLand23
