@neilkingsnorth.bsky.socialReposted by @communityenergyengland.orgLike most human needs, energy production should be localised and owned and controlled by local communities, so this is a welcome step. An essential next step, like it or not, is to massively reduce our demand for energy. Less energy use, with what we use owned by us.
