Forest Community Energy is launched!

In March 2025 Forest Community Energy transitioned from being managed by the Centre for Sustainable Energy, to become a self-organising group, with a refreshed purpose and focus. Key areas identified for future foucus included community solar, and helping residents reduce energy use and carbon emissions.

Chair, Helen Jeffrey said

"The future is very exiting for Forest Community Energy. We look forward to enabling more clean energy projects within the Forest of Dean"

We decided on a monthly meeting schedule, alternating between meeting in-person and online. Onwards!
