Wrapping up #CommunityEnergyFortnight at the Peacehaven Summer Fair 🌿
Ovesco was there giving free energy advice + sharing the Net Zero roadmap we’re building with Peacehaven Town Council
Grassroots action matters and it was great to see so many local services in action! 💚
To mark #CommunityEnergyFortnight, the OVESCO team headed back to the roof of Harvey’s Brewery — home to the UK’s first community-owned solar array, installed in 2011.
Still generating clean power, community returns + local impact. That’s how we do it. 🌞💪
