5 Years of Powering Communities & What’s Next
‘The Co-op and Octopus Energy have today announced the launch of a new community energy firm.’ That was the headline splashed across major news outlets in the UK & Europe over five years ago. Let’s take a look back at just how far we’ve come—and a look forward at what’s in store.

We sat down with Glasgow Community Energy to learn a little more about what they do, and their plans for the future.


Younity is delighted to announce the winners of the Powering Communities Fund most recent round of distributions.

If community energy is to be truly inclusive, which it has so much potential to be, then we need a diverse range of voices in the room to make the decisions. To do this, we must make it an accessible space that people can see a future in.

As a society, we're pushing for greener and more socially responsible offerings.

By far the best thing about my role at Younity is the amount of conversations I get to have with community energy practitioners across the UK. You can’t help but be inspired when you hear of the work they are doing and how they are battling against an antiquated energy system in order to ensure the move towards a sustainable, low carbon future is equitable, operated by and for the communities in which they sit.
