Exploring Community Energy for Parish & Town Councils
Join GAPTC for an informative session exploring how parish and town councils can play a leading role in local community energy projects. With guest contributions from Transition Stroud and Forest Community Energy, this event will introduce the core principles of community energy, explain the different delivery models available, and demonstrate how councils can work with partners to bring projects to life.
We will look at the practical and environmental benefits for councils and their communities, including opportunities to reduce energy costs, lower carbon emissions, and support greater local resilience. Attendees will also hear about current funding routes and examples from Gloucestershire, helping councils understand what is realistically achievable and where to begin.
Whether your council is starting to explore the idea or already considering a project, this session will provide clear, accessible guidance and pathways to take the next step.
