Community energy issues took centre stage at the Scottish Parliament earlier last month, as Community Energy Scotland launched Scotland's first national Community Energy Network.

Their Chief Executive, Nicholas Gubbins, provided evidence to the Economy, Energy and Tourism Committee and highlighted the difficulties many communities face in delivering energy projects. He also explained more about the work of Community Energy Scotland in supporting and facilitating negotiations between community groups and turbine suppliers, installers and others.

Any community-based, non-profit distributing organisation can join the Community Energy Network for help and support. To find out more about the work of Community Energy Scotland and how they may be able to assist your community group, go to http://www.communityenergyscotland.org.uk/index.asp
