Energy4All is the UKs leading expert in community-owned renewable energy schemes.
Energy4All is run by a dedicated team promoting the highly successful asset-ownership model pioneered by the award winning Baywind Energy Co-operative Ltd.
Energy4All was established in 2002 and is a not-for-profit organisation owned by the co-operatives it creates and is dedicated to helping communities around the UK to own a stake in renewable energy schemes.
It does this by creating co-operatives to own complete sites, or to buy a stake in a site from a commercial developer.
Energy4All has helped each co-op to successfully raise the required finance through a public share issue. To date over 13 million has been raised through the co-ops.
The minimum investment is usually 250, with a legal maximum of 20,000. The co-op is run according to normal co-operative principles, so each member receives a single vote in the co-ops affairs, regardless of the amount invested.
The co-ops members elect a board, which is supported by Energy4All in running the co-op.
