Half of UK Would Consider Community Energy Scheme

Over half of UK adults (51%) would get involved in a community energy project if it could save money on their energy bill, according to the findings of a DECC Community Energy Survey.

Figures also suggested bill reductions isn’t the only motivating factor, as almost a fifth of UK adults – 17% – said they would be motivated to get involved in a community energy project if it would help reduce carbon emissions to prevent climate change. Furthermore, a tenth of UK adults said that getting more involved in their local community would motivate them to get involved in a community energy project.
