Renewable Energy Cities and Communities in Scotland are driving rapid change towards a low carbon future for all. Harnessing Scotland’s massive renewable energy resource is already delivering lasting change for our businesses, communities and people.

You can engage with a wide range of stakeholders under four renewable energy / sustainability focused themes:

• Cities and Communities
