Launch of the Greener Villages Resource Pack and DVD

Rural Partnership Plus has launched the Greener Villages Resource Pack to assist rural community groups in identifying the most appropriate renewable energy solution to help in reducing consumption and cost. Community Groups, such as community building management committees, are now looking at ways to reduce their energy bills and increase energy efficiency. Over the past five years, there has been a growth in ‘community action' on energy and climate change, through the installation of renewable energy technologies. These projects have engaged more people with the issues, achieved carbon and energy savings, through communities coming together to find solutions. The Greener Villages Resource Pack and DVD has been produced to share the experience of those groups that have installed renewable energy systems; issues and challenges faced, how projects were funded, benefits now and in the future.
