Company activities and impact

During the year, East Preston Community Energy CIC has worked to promote and develop community energy across the parishes of East Preston, Angmering, and Rustington. The company has: - Successfully bid for and won funding from the Community Energy Fund. - Held three public events raising awareness of community energy opportunities in the three local parishes. - Built a database of 65 households interested in having solar PV and battery storage installed in their homes. - Participated in the development of a community energy services company business model in collaboration with Power Circle and other partners. - Worked with West Sussex County Council in shaping the community energy services model. Unfortunately, anticipated funding for the next phase of work was not secured. As a result, the Board has taken the decision to place further activity on hold and to dissolve East Preston Community Energy CIC as a going concern. Despite this outcome, the company has raised awareness, engaged local communities
