There is a wealth of co-operatives out there who employ, connect, and train incredible people in the Community Energy sector, from making homes more energy efficient through retrofit, educating people on carbon literacy, and so much technical expertise and knowledge. Year on year, the number of jobs in community energy is growing, alongside an incredible number of dedicated volunteers who are all helping democratise energy for their community’s benefit.

Join Co-operatives UK for a free lunchtime webinar that spotlights some excellent co-ops whose workers are vital in the community energy mission of putting people at the centre of the energy transition. If you’re curious about climate action, community work, or co-ops, then this webinar will definitely pique your interest in this ever-expanding sector.

This webinar is part of a series of Discover Co-ops Webinars, funded by The Cooperative Bank. Join us for these webinars during Community Energy Fortnight to learn about this expanding sector with people and the planet at the heart of it.
