Community Energy Explorer
deprivation, civic fabric and grid capacity→a map

An interactive map of community energy organisations in England. It shows how they line up with deprivation at small-area level, what other community groups and facilities are nearby, and where the electricity grid has room for new local projects.
The data explorer scores every local authority in England on need (deprivation) and readiness (local organisations, energy know-how nearby and spare grid capacity).
