Councils\, companies\, residents & community groups welcome!\n\n\nGreater Manchester Combined Authority scores 100% in the 2025 Buildings & Heating section of Climate Emergency UK’s Action Scorecards. \nWith the latest government changes encouraging and providing funding for the use of solar and battery power\, how can communities in Greater Manchester benefit from renewable energy and lower energy bills? \nBuilding on the success of previous Scorecards in Action events by Climate Emergency UK\, this event will explore how local policies and support can translate into actual uptake of solar and battery power for residents and community groups in Greater Manchester. \nThis event will share best-practice and connect residents and groups who want lower energy bills with organisations that can help them install solar and battery power. This event will focus on identifying the practical funding pathways and partnerships needed to accelerate rooftop solar and battery deployment across Greater Manchester. \nThis event is open to all\, in particular: \n\nCommunity groups based in Greater Manchester\, especially those that use or manage community spaces\nCommunity energy organisations\nCouncillors and officers within Greater Manchester\nSolar and battery companies and other delivery partners\nResidents interested in solar and batter but not sure where to start\n\n  \nWe’ve got a great line-up of speakers covering solar and battery use from lots of different perspectives. \n\nYasmin Khan\, Senior Policy and Partnerships Officer (Low Carbon)\, Greater Manchester Combined Authority\nAzhar Quaiyoom\, Director\, Q Sustain and Board Director of the Manchester Climate Change Agency CIC\nMatt Franklin\, Energy Systems & Membership Officer\, Carbon Coop\nAndrew Crossland\, Energy Engineer\, Researcher & Consultant at Durham University\n\n  \nWhen: online\, Wednesday 18th November\, 5pm \nHosted by Climate Emergency UK and Friends of the Earth Manchester
