Community Energy: A climate solution that’s potentially right at the doorstep
The new Ipsos poll commissioned by Bristol Energy Cooperative (BEC), a community-owned energy coop, shows, when asked “How much, if anything, do you personally know about the concept of 'Community Energy'?” only 1% of respondents know a great deal about the concept of community energy.
Only 13% respondents said they are aware of this concept (know a great deal (1%), a fair amount (2%) or just a little (10%)) and 26% have said they have heard of this (aware of (13%) or have heard of this but know almost nothing about this (13%)).
