About this Event
Community Energy Now! Powering Up East London
The past few years have seen community energy activity grow at pace in London with numerous renewable and energy efficiency projects delivered by a growing number of groups and practitioners. Across the city, community energy groups are helping schools, cultural venues, places of worship and other public buildings to generate their own green energy and reduce both their carbon footprint and running costs. Community Energy London has published an ambition for 1,000 projects to be delivered by 2030, and is working with the Mayor and London boroughs to achieve this.
Come along to this event which is being held as part of London Climate Action Week to learn about some of the groundbreaking projects being delivered in East London, the potential for new ones, and how you can get involved. The event will be taking place at St Paul’s Church, West Hackney – which in partnership with Stokey Energy has recently undertaken major renewable energy works to become one of the country’s greenest churches.
Speakers include:
– Sue Willsher, Net Zero Carbon Programme Lead, Diocese of London
– Cllr Sarah Young, Cabinet Member for Climate Change, Environment and Transport, Hackney Council
– Syed Ahmed, Chair, Community Energy London
