More than 90% of the electricity we use to light ur communities, and nearly all the energy we use to run our cars, heat our homes and power our factories comes from large, centralised, highly polluting, non-renewable sources of energy. It doesn't have to be that way. In Power from the People, energy expert Greg Pahl explains how communities can plan, finance, and produce their own local, renewable energy that is reliable, safe and clean. Pahl uses examples from around the world to explore how home-owners, co-ops, non-profit organisations, governments and businesses are already putting power in the hands of local communities through distributed energy programmes and energy-efficiency measures. Renewable, community power is a necessary step on the path to energy security and community resilience, particularly as we face peak oil, cope with climate change, and address the need to transition to a more sustainable future.
