New funding aims to help communities build their own clean energy projects, which could cut local service bills. This initial £30 million fund, representing the first phase of a larger £1 billion initiative, is not accessible to individual property owners. Instead, the money will support community groups and local authorities to develop projects like solar panels on public buildings.
