1/2 The Offshore Wind Fair Work Charter will strengthen workers’ rights across the industry. Backed by major manufacturers and trade unions, it will help deliver a secure, stable energy system powered by workers with strong support and protections at work.

Could a community battery cut your bills? We are already seeing the impact in Hook Norton, where a community battery is helping cut costs and make the most of locally generated energy. We want to see more of this - putting power back into the hands of local communities.

If we want households to benefit from clean power we need a more flexible energy system – and community batteries can help deliver it. Our proposals aim to give renters and people living in flats the chance to store cheaper renewable electricity and cut their bills 👇

Families could benefit from cheaper energy through community batteries, putting ownership of clean power in their hands & cutting bills. We’re seeking views on how they can be rolled out across the UK - helping store locally generated energy & passing on savings to households.
