The theme of this year's fortnight is ‘People Powered Futures’ – exploring how Community Energy empowers future generations to fight climate breakdown. CEF19 will shine a light on and celebrate the Community Energy groups across the country who have been successfully working with schools to install solar PV, educate the next generation on climate change and encourage young people to participate in the transition to a people-powered future.
Businesses offering smart energy-efficient solutions such as offshore renewable energy, energy storage systems, smart grid systems, alternative fuels etc are being asked to join the Intelligent Community Energy (ICE) community and be selected to receive an ICE Label to support and promote their business. The European project is particularly targeting companies that can supply electricity solutions, technologies and services to supply remote island and isolated off-grid communities.
