You can download the episode directly here.
This week, Craig talks to Kristopher Leask from Community Energy Scotland and Josh Doble from Community Land Scotland about their new call to action paper A Fair Energy Deal for Communities. They discuss the state of community owned energy in Scotland, what the benefits are compared to the privatised model we more used to in Scotland. They also discuss some of the barriers facing communities who want to start their own community owned energy groups.
