Community Energy

READ OUR COMMUNITY ENERGY TOOLKIT

At OVO, we believe community energy has a critical role to play in the net zero transition.
Through our work setting up Power Purchase Agreements with community energy projects
across the UK, we’ve seen first-hand the determination and ambition these groups bring to
delivering local, renewable energy. But it’s also clear that the system isn’t always set up to
let this ambition thrive – with regulatory, financial and structural barriers too often standing in
the way.

Across the UK, communities are already leading the charge. But getting a project off the
ground isn’t always easy. That’s why we’ve created People Powered: How Communities
Can Fund and Sell Their Own Power – a practical guide to help community groups
navigate the complex world of finance and Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs).
