Energy4All is the UKs leading expert in community-owned renewable energy schemes.
Energy4All encourages people from all walks of life to be part of the renewable revolution and join in the fight against climate change, whilst maximising the social, economic, and environmental benefits of schemes to the community.
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.
Energy4All Ltd is a not-for-profit organisation 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.
These co-ops are modelled on the successful Baywind Energy Co-op in Cumbria. Baywind has about 1,350 members and has operated since 1996. It now owns and runs its own commercial wind farm, makes regular share interest payments to its members and supports local environmental schemes.
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-op's affairs, regardless of the amount invested.
The co-op's members elect a board, which is supported by Energy4All in running the co-op.
