Inspiring story in Ireland
Templederry is home to Ireland’s first community windfarm which supplies the grid with community-owned wind energy. The project with two windturbines is run by the people of Templederry. The 32 shareholders all live in the locality and include farmers, students, retired people and members of the clergy.
The project produces enough green electricity to power 3500 homes, or the equivalent of the local town of Nenagh.
This is just one example of thousands of community energy projects across Europe.
