Launch of Harborough Community Energy

In November last year, the speaker at our HCA Open Meeting was Ben Dodd, from the Greener Futures Leicestershire progamme, who talked to us about Community Energy projects.

This created a good deal of interest, with many attendees saying that they would like to see some Community Energy projects being set up in the Market Harborough area. In particular seeing the development of one or two Solar PV Community Energy Share Offers and setting up a team of local Energy Champions.

A small group of us have been meeting behind the scenes to plan how to make this happen, and we are now ready to launch a new group - Harborough Community Energy - which will have its inaugural meeting as follows :

Date and Time : Wednesday March 27th, 7.30pm - 9pm

Venue : The Langton Room, MH Congregational Church, Bowden Lane, LE16 7JD

And here is a document setting out in more detail what the group will be all about.

Anyone interested in creating and realising a vision for establishing Community Energy projects in the Harborough area is invited to join the first meeting of this group. We are really keen to know what you would like to see this group achieve in the long term, and how you would like to see it operating over the coming months.

No commitments needed at this stage, just your ideas!
