Scottish
Government Community Renewable Energy Toolkit
The
Scottish Government has produced a Community Renewable Energy
Toolkit to help community groups to develop renewable energy
projects.
'Groups' may be an informal collection of likeminded individuals
wishing to start something in their community, or may be well-established,
constituted organisations linked to a community facility (e.g.
village hall or community centre) or with a wider purpose
(e.g. Development Trusts). It does not assume any detailed
knowledge of the topic and so allows you to decide where to
start - whether this means looking at the basics of energy
generation and use, or at specific detail of a particular
renewable energy technology.
The toolkit is designed to allow you to work through what
your community's options will be and point you in the direction
of further help and information to allow you to take a project
forward.
