Feasibility Study Lagnö Energy Community
A pre-study for sustainable energy in collaboration
About the project
Lagnö Energy Community – a feasibility study for sustainable energy in collaboration
Lagnö Bo KHF is conducting a feasibility study with support from Leader Sörmlandskusten to investigate how a local energy community can be created on the Tureholm Peninsula in Trosa Municipality. The purpose is to map the technical, legal, and economic conditions for producing and sharing renewable energy locally – for the benefit of both the environment and the economy.
The project conducts workshops, study visits, and gathers lessons that will also benefit other areas. The goal is to develop a model for energy communities that can be used by more.
THE PROJECT
”We want to show that it is possible to collaborate locally to produce and share energy in a sustainable way – while also inspiring others to make the same journey.”
– Raymond Wigg, Lagnö Bo KHF
