CLASP is supporting a community energy conference for the public sector and communities; exploring how we can encourage and capitalise on the fast paced growth of the community energy sector throughout the UK, to harness and expand this growth in the North

As part of the event we will be looking to explore:

• Opportunity – exploring the potential for community energy in the North. Highlighting the multiple benefits this can bring, not just lowering carbon, but bringing social change and levering investment into renewable energy infrastructure.
• Challenges – examining the issues and challenges, are they different from the South, if so, how and why?
• Co-operation and networks - the keys to success in community energy are partnerships, collaboration and co-operation.
• Support – working together to make it happen, delivering the full potential of community energy together.

There will be plenty of opportunity for discussion and networking including facilitated workshop sessions.

Who should attend?

Please note that this event is free to attend and is aimed at representatives from voluntary/community organisations, local authorities, social enterprise, central government and other public bodies.
