Community benefits from renewables: give us your views!

Have Your Say on Community Benefits from Renewables!

Scotland’s commercial renewable energy projects can bring community benefit funds—but are they fair? The Scottish Government is updating its guidance, with a consultation open, and your input is needed.

• Should there be a national wealth fund?
• Is £5,000/MW for onshore projects the correct rate?
• How should offshore projects contribute?
• What’s the potential of shared ownership?

And more!
