Firman Latimer, MBA One of the many great people changing the way we not only power our world, but also how we empower people. See the article below for insight into his founding of FNpower and his work with Indigenous communities developing sustainable energy.

The journey towards sustainable urban living and energy consumption is not just necessary - it's already underway, with inspiring examples from around the globe 🌍 Take Lancaster, California, aiming to be the first carbon-neutral community in the U.S., and the transformative efforts in Wunsiedel, Germany. These stories highlight not just the technological shift but a profound change in mindset and community engagement towards green energy solutions. The transition to green energy is more than a technical challenge: it's a collective endeavor that requires innovation, community involvement, and bold leadership. From large-scale solar installations to the circular energy economies, these initiatives showcase the potential for cities to lead the charge in the global transition to sustainable energy sources 🌱 As we contemplate the future of energy production and consumption, let's draw inspiration from these models of success. The path to a sustainable future is paved with the innovative use of local resources, community-driven efforts, and a shared commitment to leaving a better planet for future generations.

In the latest Autumn edition of Energy Global, Limes Managing Director Cristiano Spillati shares his thoughts on how to accelerate the energy transition by prioritising community involvement and empowerment. Key insights include: ·     Community Empowerment: Early and active involvement is essential in the planning and implementation stages of renewable energy projects.  ·      Local Engagement: Moving beyond NIMBYism, developers and policy-makers alike must understand the legitimate concerns of local communities. ·      Tailored Approaches: There’s no one-size-fits-all solution – strategies must be customised to fit local needs and complexities. ·      Collaborative Success: Long-term success hinges on collaboration with local communities, governments, landowners, workers, and even those who may initially oppose the project. Cristiano Spillati emphasises: “Achieving significant, positive, and localised impacts from renewable energy projects requires moving away from a one-size-fits-all strategy. Projects aiming to benefit local areas must prioritise relationship-building and partnerships with the communities they serve, ensuring solutions are tailored to local needs and complexities”. 🔗 Read more on Energy Global (page 3): https://lnkd.in/dd4VNPS5
