Community Power Tariff
About the tariff
Community energy projects and local energy groups bring together like-minded locals to invest in community generation projects – Whether it’s putting solar panels on neighbourhood rooftops, adding wind turbines to local farmland or harnessing power from the local river – these projects are owned and run by the communities they power. Profits go towards local initiatives. More green energy gets pumped into the grid. It’s a truly co-operative way of generating power... and thanks to Your Co-op Energy, you can play your part by switching to the fully renewable community energy tariff.
Have been impressed with Your Co-op Energy always staying ahead of market rises and coming up with a good deal. The fact it's 100% renewable energy is even better.

Switching to community power - why bother?
Purchasing through the the Your Co-op Energy Community Power tariff means you can support local communities across the country, and know that the generators receive a fair price for the power they produce. The revenue they receive can go straight towards community initiatives from nature conservation efforts to insulation for homes in disadvantaged areas.
