Alex WalkerPleased to hear that MPs from all major parties supported community energy in the <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/GBenergy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GBenergy</a> bill debate. Ed Milliband stated that "GBE will "deliver the biggest expansion of support for community-owned energy in history.” It will be interesting to see some detail.

Alex WalkerDisappointing. Labour’s manifesto had a commitment to enabling community energy but the Great British Energy Bill has no mention of the topic. <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/GBEnergy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GBEnergy</a>
