LocalRES is an EU-funded project that will deploy innovative local energy systems to put renewable energy into the hands of communities and people. The project will boost structural changes in the current energy system at different levels: generation, market, distribution and consumers.
Carbery Housing Association is a community based social housing developer and provider, approved by the Department of Housing. CHA purchases and leases properties to provide long term housing for rent for families who cannot afford to rent of buy on the open market. We secure local authority support and loan funding to develop these initiatives. We at present have 20 properties which are being rented to families nominated by the local Councils.
We are renewable energy consultant professionals, with over 10 years of experience in all aspects of electrical connections of renewable energy projects, from the initial design to final grid connection.
The usual technical assistance and support schemes often take the capacity of a community to stay informed and eventually access such instruments for granted. Resources in the form of small grants for early stage organisation, preparations and planning are very scarce and as a result small islands are left behind.

New Energy Scenarios and Systems for a renewable world
Due to the current health and travel situation, this year's edition of the Clean Energy for EU Islands Forum will be held online.
The programme will focus on creating stronger links between the EU institutions and the local actions on the island. Representatives from different institutions will introduce their role in creating the enabling framework for the decarbonisation of EU islands, and island communities will present and discuss their activities with peers and EU representatives.
