We made a commitment in the Clean Growth Strategy to establish a Local Energy Contact Group. The Group is not a formal public body but rather, it is designed to provide insight for the department on the unique value, impacts and opportunities of policy options on local and community energy schemes.

The first meeting will take place shortly. I am pleased to announce that Pete Capener MBE has agreed to be the first chair of the group.

As this is an advisory group and not a public body, formal minutes of the meetings will not be published. We will however, make sure that agendas are available in advance so interested parties can raise issues with members of the Group.
