Powering Communities – Changing Lives
Project SCENe pioneers sustainable community energy systems – from Nottingham’s Trent Basin to informal settlements in Nairobi, Kenya. One model. Unlimited reach.
Community Energy That Works For People
Project SCENe accelerates the adoption of Community Energy Systems – a different way of generating and supplying locally produced electricity to homes and businesses. The result: reduced costs, lower carbon, and communities in control of their own energy.
- Generate Locally
Solar PV and local thermal energy production create power close to the communities using it, cutting transmission losses and costs. - Store Smartly
Europe’s largest community battery stores surplus energy, stabilises the grid, and ensures every clean watt is used well. - Share Fairly
Novel business models and community engagement tools put residents in control — cutting bills and carbon together.
