A Lanarkshire MP has given her backing to a breakthrough law which aims to empower community-run energy schemes.
East Kilbride, Strathaven and Lesmahagow MP, Dr Lisa Cameron, is supporting a proposed new law, known as the Local Electricity Bill.
If made law, communities in Scotland and across the UK could buy their electricity from community-owned renewable energy projects, helping to reduce the UK’s dependency on volatile gas supplies and keeping profits from electricity bills in the local area.
