Project duration: ongoing
Regen has supported Northern Powergrid to develop a three-year strategy to engage and support community and local energy stakeholders in their licence areas.
The strategy was developed based on feedback from 17 community energy representatives, who told us what support they need, how they would like to be engaged and what role they want to play in the future energy system. The strategy was also informed by insight from Regen’s community energy engagement experience over the past eight years, and in depth interviews with Northern Powergrid’s senior team, to test the feasibility of new ideas.
This strategy includes Northern Powergrid’s vision, purpose and approach, and an action plan with commitments which Northern Powergrid can work towards over the next three years (2020-2023) to support the community and local energy sector to grow and thrive.
You can read the full strategy here.

We run regular engagement events for communities that you can view here and we have a special rate for community energy organisations who would like to be members of Regen which can be found here.
