Recommendation
The Secretary of State should use the power granted by the 2015 Infrastructure Act to give individuals and/or communities the right to purchase a 20% stake in a renewable generation facility in their local area at a fair market price. We recommend additional incentives to encourage commercial developers to constructively engage with community energy organisations and available support to community energy organisations to ensure shared-ownership arrangements are mutually beneficial.
