Conclusion
The governance of the sector is rapidly evolving with the influx of new actors such as NESO and GB Energy but their roles and interactions with diverse community energy organisations remain unclear. Too much focus on high- level planning and large-scale infrastructure risks neglecting the need for place-based approaches that delivering on community and local energy requires. More coordination and clarity on responsibilities and mandates in delivering change to achieve the 8GW target for stakeholders to understand are needed. (Conclusion, Paragraph 85)
