Watch our video to see how we are ‘Powering Up’ to develop community owned renewables, and ‘Powering Down’ to support net zero.

Our impact

We develop community-owned renewable energy in East Sussex. We want to reduce our local carbon footprint and lower our dependence on imported energy in partnership with schools, businesses and local people.

We create community owned renewable generation assets. So far we have built almost 6MW of solar. We have hundreds of shareholders with hundreds of thousands of pounds invested in community owned renewable energy.
