community-owned clean energy.

To The Energy Minister,

Community-scale renewable energy offers huge potential to accelerate the low-carbon transition but in the UK, it is being blocked by wildly disproportionate costs and unfair regulations.

Power for People is campaigning for the Local Electricity Bill which, if made law, would empower community energy groups to start up and sell their clean electricity to local people.

More of the revenues kept locally would mean more investment in local services, more energy security, more local skilled jobs and a boost for clean energy generation across the UK.

Please support the Local Electricity Bill in order to deliver more clean, local energy that benefits local communities.


The UK is not meeting its climate change targets.

Our recovery from COVID-19 must accelerate the low-carbon transition to prevent dangerous levels of warming by the end of the century.

The Local Electricity Bill can play a key role. If made law, it would empower community energy groups to start up and sell their clean electricity directly to local people. This would build local resilience and reduce our climate emissions simultaneously.

Below is a list of organisations that support the Local Electricity Bill:

These organisations support the Local Electricity Bill in principle and not necessarily its exact current wording. The wording of the Bill may change as our campaign for it progresses.
