Energy, empowered.
Empowering communities across Greater Manchester through education, outreach, and sustainable, community owned renewable energy solutions.
Our approach
☻
Community-led.
We put communities at the center of everything we do. Our "bottom-up" approach ensures local voices lead the design and implementation of every project. This co-design process fosters true ownership and creates lasting, relevant solutions built by the community, for the community.
❋
Tailored and feasible tech.
We find the right renewable solution for each unique community. Through rigorous feasibility studies, we assess a mix of technologies—from solar and wind to heat pumps—to determine the most effective and financially viable option for each specific site.
✦
Inclusive and equitable engagement.
A just energy transition leaves no one behind. We prioritize engaging with all community members, especially marginalized or hard-to-reach groups. By ensuring diverse voices shape our projects, we create equitable solutions that address local energy priorities and build a fairer future for all.
✿
Building local ownership & resilience.
We empower communities to take democratic control of their energy future. Our goal is to build models, like Community Share offers, that allow the economic and social benefits of clean energy to be retained locally. This creates lasting resilience and a self-sustaining, low-carbon community.
