COMMUNITIES FOR RENEWABLES C.I.C.

Communities for Renewables (CfR) is a mission-led community interest company that helps communities, public sector bodies, and non for profits in developing, financing, and managing their own renewable energy generation. CfR helps communities, public sector bodies and large energy users generate their own energy. We work for a future where energy is locally generated and locally owned. Since setting up in 2012, CfR has worked with local energy enterprises in over 40 localities, from villages to cities, to help deliver community energy generation ranging from solar installations on school roofs to one of the largest community solar farms in the UK. CfR’s expertise spans the entire process of MW-scale renewable energy project management, from business planning and feasibility development to construction, financing and operation. As a Community Interest Company (CIC), any surplus made by CfR is re-invested in supporting further local energy projects.
