The below shows the current output* for community energy projects across the UK.
Although small scale I personally feel these kind of projects will form a greater part of our supply profile in the future: it therefore makes monitoring them a worthwhile investment of my time.
Should you have any further community projects you wish to monitor with open data please contact me.
Currently the following projects are monitored:
Energy Local*
Octopus Energy (Fan club)
Reading Hydro
*all energy data from Energy Local is hard fixed at 50kW until permission to use the data source is granted.
