Join the Community Energy Launchpad to learn how community organisations can reduce their building’s energy costs and emissions.
Planning and Funding your Community Building Decarbonisation Project
Join us for a collaborative workshop with Community Energy Launchpad designed to help local not-for-profit organisations take the next step toward energy-efficient, low-carbon community-owned or -leased buildings.
Whether you’re new to sustainability or looking to boost your project, this event is a great opportunity to learn what works, ask questions, and get support for the first steps of your project.
We’ll cover the fundamentals of technologies like heat pumps and solar pannels and potential routes to funding, and you’ll hear directly from groups who have already delivered successful CARES-funded upgrades.
By the end of the session, you’ll understand what makes a strong CARES Community Buildings Fund application, what typical community-led decarbonisation projects look like in practice, and where to start with costs, energy assessments and next steps.
