For too long, we've relied on energy produced and owned abroad – empowering oligarchs while multinational oil and gas companies make record profits.

With prices reaching record highs, there has never been a more important moment to invest in cheap, clean renewable energy produced and owned right here in the UK.

At the Co-operative Party, we know that ownership matters. And that's why we back community-owned energy, where local people own and control renewables like solar panels and wind farms that power their communities.

We're calling for a massive investment in community energy to deliver transformative change to the energy system, by building renewable energy capacity and putting communities in control.

We need a new energy production system that is cheap, green and owned and controlled by the people who use it. Agree? Add your name to back community-owned energy.
