Details

The plan sets out how together we will grow local and community-owned clean energy across the UK, ensuring that communities directly benefit from the energy they help to produce.

We will expand community and local clean energy by providing up to £1 billion of funding, hands-on support, better business models and policy ambition and regulatory reform so that local projects can be developed at scale across the UK.
