In the dynamic landscape of renewable energy, fostering community ownership and trust is paramount. Recognising this imperative, INSPIRE launched TRUST MATTERS, a project dedicated to nurturing the spirit of community ownership within the Renewable Energy Independent Power Producer Procurement Programme (REIPPPP).
Trust Matters is an investment in exploring the full spectrum of community ownership. Our aim is to support community trusts participating in REIPPPP, mobilise community leadership, and catalyse developmental impact. Through this initiative, we seek to create a platform where community trusts can connect, learn, and collaborate to maximise the benefits of renewable energy projects for their communities.
