Future Energy Landscapes

Starting conversations about renewable energy projects that benefit your local community

 

Future Energy Landscapes (FEL) is a Centre for Sustainable Energy (CSE) project to start conversations about renewable energy that could be owned by and benefit local people. Community-led energy projects keep benefits local – for example, providing investment in local facilities. When communities lead energy projects, they create solutions that work for everyone – tackling both climate change and rising energy costs.

FEL happens at a town or parish scale. It can be used in the early stages of conversations for a community to decide if they want a community renewables project in their area - it is not a final consultation method. It brings people together to discuss and develop their views on what type of renewable energy could go in their area - and how it could benefit the community.
