Community Energy Forum – Peasedown, Wellow and Shoscombe

About this event

Open discussion • Free vegetarian buffet • Everyone welcome

This forum is about open discussion. Together we’ll weigh up options, hear technical advice, and share community priorities. It’s not about making decisions behind closed doors, it’s about shaping them together.

As part of the Energy in Your Community project, your voice is central to the process. Enjoy a free vegetarian buffet from 6pm, then join us from 6.30pm to 8.30pm for an inspiring evening of conversation and collaboration.

You don’t need any prior knowledge, everything will be explained step by step in clear, jargon-free language.

What we'll do together

• Review outcomes from the workshop and open day
• Discuss area options with technical input
• Build agreement on feasible pathways

Why it matters

• Ensures decisions are informed and transparent
• Builds community consent for next steps
• Strengthens trust in the process

What happens next

Shortlisted sites will undergo technical review, with results shared at the insights session.

About Energy in Your Community

Energy in Your Community helps local people explore and develop renewable energy projects, like wind turbines or solar farms (depending on what is suitable in your area), that bring direct benefits to their communities. This is part of the Community Energy Network, a partnership project supported by Bath and North East Somerset Council, Bath & West Community Energy, the Centre for Sustainable Energy and the University of Bath. Our shared aim is to deliver 5MW of community-owned renewable generation across Bath and North East Somerset by 2030.
