November 2019 — June 2020
The 4th annual Community Energy - State of the Sector 2020 research project was launched in January 2020. The 2020 report comes at a time of change in the UK low carbon sector, with the closure of the Feed-in and Export Tariff schemes altering the landscape for small to medium scale energy generation. These changes come alongside a wider sectoral shift towards a more decentralised and digitised approach to low carbon development across the UK.
The 2020 survey and resulting study can be found details the changes in the community energy sector, the barriers faced in 2020 and the new opportunities arising through 2020 and beyond. This year we are also delivering locally focussed studies, alonside Distribution Network Operator partners.
