Local Economic Development

EA Technology has donated 25 consultancy days (equivalent to £25,000 at commercial rates) to the Blacon Community Trust, which works for an economically deprived community of 16,000 people near Chester.

Sustainable Blacon Model

• Green power from URBAN community microgrid
• Repeatable model of new locally managed energy economy
• Integration with urban renewal initiatives e.g. reducing carbon footprint of existing buildings during refurbishment
• Sustainable development for urban communities, including deprived areas, estates and small commercial developments
• Positive effect on fuel poverty and consumer costs
