by

Community Energy England (CEE) Photo Award 2017

We are delighted to have won the Community Energy England Photo Award 2017. This was first year CEE have had a photo award.

They asked for images that captured the essence of community energy. The shortlist was put to a public online vote which took place in the lead up to the ceremony. Photo likes on Facebook and Twitter were combined with a survey. Over 850 votes were cast!

Our winning picture, Westmill Turbine Hug, which received 26% of the public vote, demonstrates a community coming together to help create a low carbon future for generations to come.
