Description
Communities across the UK want to be part of the energy transition, actively engaging in and benefiting from local renewable energy projects. Shared ownership of these projects is a key way for communities to gain a stake, feel involved, and directly benefit from the energy transition. Shared ownership levels in the UK are lower than in other European countries and Great British Energy would like to help address this gap. We recognise that developing standardised templates, guidance documents, and other resources for both communities and renewable energy developers would help increase shared ownership.
This market engagement event will explore the challenges, identify solutions, and gather insights to shape a tender for delivering the necessary tools.

Engagement process description
In order to help us develop the scope of services for this procurement we invite attendees to join an online Microsoft Teams presentation on Thursday 26th July 11:30-12:30 (BST). We will be presenting our thinking around the problems faced around Shared Ownership and seeking thoughts on what products we should consider to be developed as part of a specification for a future procurement, expected to occur later this summer.
This is an opportunity for suppliers and interested parties to participate in helping us define our requirements.
If you wish to attend, please follow the link here to sign up and receive an invitation:
