Scene is working with the Buddhist communities in Newcastle and London to reduce their energy bills and cut carbon emissions by installing solar panels. So when we moved into our new office in Edinburgh, the monks from Newcastle came to bless this auspicious occasion.
Bullionfield Solar Farm is the largest community energy project to go live in 2024, and is the perfect example of how community energy and commercial requirements can go hand in hand.

The new £10m Community Energy Fund is a huge opportunity for UK communities to address the ongoing energy crisis and fight climate change. Unlike previous funding, the CEF will now offer a means for both rural and urban communities to investigate and implement new energy projects.
If you are interested in talking to Scene about your energy ideas, projects or require expert support, please get in touch with us.
Scene helps Galaxy Sports cut its carbon and increase its community impact through an integrated renewable energy system combining solar panels, batteries, electric vehicle charging, and energy efficient lighting. The benefits are helping the new Galaxy Foundation provide more support for health and wellbeing for the community in Grangemouth.
Scene has been working with the local community to continue their decarbonisation process to reach net zero. Our latest work has included the installation of additional energy monitoring, and smart control of immersion heaters.
It's not just in Hollywood disaster movies where the community hall is the focal point for the community in times of crisis. As individuals face a cost of living crisis brought on by the spiralling price of energy, community halls are a safe - and warm - place for people to come together. But community centres are being hit especially hard by the energy crisis. Energy retrofit, renewable heating, and renewable generation, can reduce running costs and climate impact - and there is funding available for both surveys and installation.
At the turn of the year, the amount of low-carbon generation in the energy mix broke records (again), hitting 87.6% of the total. But if the wind isn't getting more expensive, why is the price of energy for consumers higher than it has ever been? Why is it that it hits the poorest the hardest? Can we not club together to find a solution?
