For this IGP Soundbite, we are lucky to hear from founder of Repowering London, Agemennon Otero. Founded in 2011, Repowering London empowers communities by establishing solar energy cooperatives. Their aim is to increase communities' resilience by lowering their energy bills, and providing the professional skills needed to install solar power. In an age of climate change, monopolistic energy providers, and fuel poverty, making projects like this work is crucial to acheiving prosperity.
