“Community ownership of energy builds public support for renewables, enables communities to make decisions about their energy future and will help reduce carbon emissions. At Friends of the Earth Scotland we believe that individuals and community groups should be able to put their own money in community energy initiatives including shared-ownership projects.
“We need to think ahead to a time when communities here in Scotland are able to follow Ecopower and other European examples and supply as well as generate renewable energy through the national grid.”
