🔹 the views of all those with an interest in the social and economic benefits of renewable energy development for people and communities in Scotland.

🔹 views on community benefits from onshore technologies, such as onshore wind, solar, hydrogen and storage and community benefits from offshore technologies, such as offshore wind.

Sharing this online event taking place on 6th March.... a chance to learn more and contribute to the debate on Community Benefits from renewables....💬 Have Your Say on Community Benefits from Renewables

Scotland’s commercial renewable energy projects can bring community benefit funds—but are they fair? The Scottish Government is updating its guidance, with a consultation open, and your input is needed.

Explore questions around:

- Should there be a national wealth fund?

- Is the recommended £5,000/MW for onshore projects the correct rate?

- How should offshore projects contribute?

- What’s the potential of shared ownership?

- And more!
