energy4all facilitates the creation and development of wind turbine cooperatives in the united kingdom , based on the experienced gained in the creation of the uk 's first wind co-op , baywind energy co-operative .

it has gone on to raise at least £ 6million on behalf of the co-operatives , through community share offerings .

whilst not technically a co-operative itself , the organisation has helped create at least ten wind co-ops , including westmill wind farm co-operative and boyndie wind farm co-operative , who , along with baywind , own energy4all .

one of the co-operatives it has created , energy prospects co-operative , specialises in taking early stage wind co-operatives through the development and planning application stages to the point where a community share offer , managed by energy4all , can be launched to fund the project .

they won an ashden award in 2012 .

co - operatives that wholly own a renewable energy facility are responsible for all stages in the project’s development , construction and operation , with support from energy4all . for these co - operatives , the process usually starts with a group of interested individuals approaching energy4all . if energy4all takes on the project and the necessary agreements are signed , work starts on gaining planning permission for the potential site , and taking the steps required to set up a co - operative , including extensive financial modelling .
energy4all has been involved in the development of the project , and manages the day - to - day operations of westmill co - op through a management contract .

energy4all is a non profit distributing organisation dedicated to helping communities around the uk to own renewable energy schemes . energy4all itself is owned by the community co - operatives it creates and is unique in the uk . it was established in 2002 by the successful baywind energy co - op in cumbria and has now set up ( and administers ) 12 additional co - ops .
energy4all is a non profit distributing organisation dedicated to helping communities around the uk to own renewable energy schemes . energy4all itself is owned by the community co - operatives it creates and is unique in the uk . it was established in 2002 by the successful baywind energy co - op in cumbria and has now set up ( and administers ) 22 additional co - ops .
the majority of energy4all’s revenue is earned through fees paid for development and for administration . development fees are paid to energy4all from the proceeds of the share offer , and are equal to around 5 % of the full capital cost of the project . these fees cover getting planning permission , setting up the co - operative and running a share offer , which for a free - standing wind project can easily cost over £200 , 000 . administration fees are paid by the co - operatives to energy4all to provide a package of management services . in this way all the co - operatives benefit from the economies of scale of having eight co - operatives in the energy4all ‘family’ . fees vary according to exactly what is required and the history of the project .
energy4all has grown to become a family of 23 independent renewable - energy co - operatives . our co - operatives have 13 , 250 individual members and have created 30mw of electricity capacity .
once a site is commissioned , all operating costs , and costs of finance , are taken out of the income from electricity sales . all of energy4all’s established co - operatives are profitable businesses .
energy4all works with falck to introduce the idea of co - operative ownership to the communities , during the consultation and planning stages . once the wind farm has approval and construction is starting , energy4all then supports the co - operative board in marketing a share offer , so that by the time local co - operative members have bought their shares , the wind farm is ready to generate electricity .
energy4all has brought behaviour change to the world of investment , by making it possible for people in the uk to invest in renewable energy generation with as little as £250 . energy4all estimates that an investment of £2 , 000 in one of its co - operatives enables the generation of at least as much electricity as an average uk home uses ( between 3 and 5 mwh / year ) .
energy4all co - operatives pay a return to their members , the level of which depends largely on the wind levels over time . there is also a commitment to return members’ capital at the end of the project’s life .
energy4all has dealt with these issues to enable community ownership of renewable energy . this is achieved by setting up co - operatives that own wind farm capacity and carrying out regulated share offers to allow communities to buy into them .
energy4all was established by baywind co - op on a not - for - profit basis in 2002 for the sole purpose of facilitating the ownership and operation of renewable energy projects by local or community - based co - operatives .
energy4all has always been keen to include technologies other than wind power , but only technologies that are financially viable on an appropriate scale can be supported by the its model , due to the costs of running a regulated share offer .
ownership of a complete wind farm is normally beyond the means of a community cooperative . energy4all therefore developed a model in which the community owns one or more turbines in a larger commercially - owned project , with the main developer looking after the planning and construction process . after experiencing significant challenges with this model , energy4all’s policy is now only to adopt such projects if the division of the site can be incorporated from the start , to avoid legal and financial complications .
in 2011 the total output from wind farm capacity owned by energy4all co - operatives was 45 , 290 mwh . this renewable electricity avoids fossil fuel generation and its associated environmental impacts , including greenhouse gas emissions , local air pollution and the impact of mining and drilling . energy4all uses a conservative figure of 430 kg co 2 e avoided per mwh of renewable generation . on this basis avoided co 2 emissions in 2011 were 19 , 500 tonnes of co 2 e .
by encouraging local ownership of wind farms , energy4all ensures that more of the money earned from renewable energy generation stays in nearby communities . other local income is also generated through rent paid to the landowner , business rates paid to the local council , and any local staff employed for managing and monitoring of the wind farms . jobs have also been created at energy4all , with the staff growing from three when it was founded in 2002 to thirteen full and part - time employees in 2012 .
if planning permission is granted , energy4all manages the raising of the required capital finance through share offers and commercial bank loans . the co - operative launches a share offer document , which explains the model and the risks , before inviting people to invest and become members . once finance is in place , work starts on implementing the detailed plans to build the wind farm . the timescale from initiation to commissioning for a wind project is often several years , making stamina a key attribute for both community groups and energy4all .
for remote areas where projects tend to be much larger , and populations much smaller , energy4all has developed another unique business model , in this case with a commercial developer , falck renewables . this is based on a revenue - sharing agreement where the co - operative raises capital ( around £1 . 5 million ) to purchase a small stake in the project . falck deals with the planning , construction and operation of the site , while energy4all is responsible for creating , launching and supporting the new community co - operative .
energy4all has set up four different types of co - operative . in each case co - operative members can invest from £250 to £20 , 000 , and if a share offer is oversubscribed , preference is given to maximising the number of local people sharing ownership .
uniquely in this sector , energy4all has developed the expertise to raise capital through fsa - approved regulated public share offers . this process is relatively onerous and expensive , but has enabled energy4all to secure commercial bank finance to assist co - operatives with the capital cost of their projects . it only supports renewable energy projects that are potentially viable businesses and not grant - dependent ; to date , only wind power projects have met these criteria , though the introduction of the feed - in tariff may open other possibilities such as solar pv and hydro in the future .

the energy4all philosophy is to provide a lifetime support structure for community ownership of renewable energy , combining business efficiency with co - operative structures and ethics . it uses innovative business models to establish co - operatives that can develop and operate renewable energy schemes on an efficient scale and overcome the substantial barriers to entry that typically face community groups .
energy4all was established in 2002 by members of the baywind co - operative , which also provided the initial investment . it is a limited company , but its memorandum and articles commit it to operating on a non - profit - distributing basis . it has a relatively flat salary structure with none of its 13 employees earning more than three times the lowest salary paid and the directors’ emoluments are lower than in a profit maximising company . each director has one share in energy4all , and each co - operative it has founded also has at least one share , resulting in the company running in a similar manner to a traditional cooperative . turnover was around £650 , 000 in 2011 / 12 .
energy4all is currently managing eight co - operatives , with between 500 and 2 , 500 members each ; in total there are 7 , 690 co - operative members , who together have invested over £16 million to buy into wind farms , ( including £1 million in energy prospects ) . the equivalent total generation capacity owned is over 20 mw .
energy4all promotes co - operation between its member co - operatives in order to encourage best practice and mutual support . it also provides information and advice on renewable energy cooperatives to many organisations , from government departments to small community groups . in particular it has provided long term support for the findhorn community in its efforts to become self - sufficient in energy .
energy4all demonstrates the power of co - operation in the renewables sector . we work with communities to develop innovative renewable energy projects , we then raise the funds those projects need to go forward , we bring high - quality project managers to support the construction process and finally we work with directors to help them manage the projects over the long - term .
in the past , energy4all was limited by finance in the number of co - operatives it could be setting up at any one time . however , the partnership with falck and the establishment of the energy prospects co - operative have alleviated this , since falck funds the cash flow for launching co - operatives on its sites , and the energy prospects co - operative can fund the planning process for some new community owned wind farms .
when energy4all sets up a new co - operative , the shares are marketed principally in the immediate vicinity of the planned wind farm , with limited publicity in the wider area , and the rest of the uk . this promotes local ownership of renewable energy generation , and also increases the acceptance of wind farms . co - operatives donate a proportion of their earnings to charitable work focused on sustainable energy in the local area , for example installing insulation in community buildings , or sponsoring educational initiatives in local schools including site visits .
there is growing interest in the uk in investing in renewable sources of electricity , but not everyone has a suitable location to install renewable energy equipment , or sufficient money to pay for an entire system .
people like to feel their investment is going into something worthwhile , as well as getting a reasonable return .
we are excited to announce the 2018 ashden award winners . ten innovative organisations have been chosen as the best in sustainable energy . read on to see who our four uk winners and six international winners are , and to learn more about their impressive work in the sector .
with uk energy supplies declining , electricity prices rising and co 2 emissions still too high , it’s not surprising that a growing number people are interested in investing in renewable sources of electricity . however , not everyone owns a suitable house or land on which to install renewable energy equipment , or they may not have sufficient money to pay for an entire system themselves . joint community ownership is possible , but significant legal , financial and technical issues need to be dealt with for this to happen , and development of community - owned renewables in the uk is far behind many other countries in europe .
in particular it has provided long term support for the findhorn community in its efforts to become self - sufficient in energy .
at several of the wind farms with co - operative investment , measures have been taken to improve the habitat surrounding the turbines , to promote biodiversity .
i feel so proud that my husband and i have enabled them to be part of the solution to the enormous problems that climate change is presenting humanity with , and i can’t thank enough all those involved , for making westmill wind farm happen .
community involvement : members of the westmill wind farm co - operative ‘hug’ one of their turbines .

air europe was a wholly privately owned , independent british airline , established in 1978 under the working title inter european airways .

it adopted the air europe name the following year .

its head office was in reigate , surrey , then in crawley , west sussex .

its main operating base was at london gatwick airport where it commenced commercial airline operations in may 1979 with three brand-new boeing 737-200 advanced jet aircraft .

air europe was the brainchild of errol cossey and martin o'regan , two former dan-air executives , and harry goodman , who had founded intasun leisure during the early 1970s .

goodman became the airline 's main private financial backer , and in so doing expanded his role as chairman of the international leisure group ( ilg ) , the parent company of both companies .

air europe was the main supplier of charter seats to intasun leisure , which grew during the 1980s to become the uk 's second-largest package tour operator ( after the market leader thomson ) .

air europe expanded during the 1980s with a major scheduled presence on short-haul european trunk routes taking off and landing at london gatwick .

towards the end of the decade it became the first non-state incepted airline to become pan-european , setting up subsidiaries elsewhere in europe and it acquired two small airlines , forming the nucleus of a new air europe express regional airline subsidiary .

the acquired slots at gatwick enabled it to increase frequencies as well as launch new scheduled routes .

by the end of the decade it had become gatwick 's largest resident airline operator .

air europe 's success came to an end - the cost of borrowing rose ( to the detriment of highly debt-leveraged companies ) and financial problems beset its parent company from late 1989 thus ilg and its uk-based subsidiaries — including air europe — went bankrupt on 8 march 1991 .

context - air quality remains an important issue for public health , the economy and the environment . exposure to air pollution is largely a multi - pollutant process and poor air quality has a significant impact on health , as it contributes to respiratory and cardiovascular diseases . european policies of air quality have had considerable success in the past in reducing air pollution .
emissions of the main air pollutants in europe have declined in the period 2002–2011 . this resulted in improved air quality across the region — at least with respect to certain pollutants . however , a significant proportion of europe ' s population lives in cities , where air quality standards are still exceeded regularly . particulate matter ( pm ) and ozone ( o 3 ) pollution are associated with serious health risks , and exposure to high levels of organic pollutants , in particular polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons ( pahs ) is a growing health concern in europe .
europe aims to have a strong , growing and low - carbon industry with closed material cycles . currently , industry remains a significant source of pollutant releases to europe’s environment . releases of pollutants to air and water by european industry have generally decreased during the last decade . environmental regulation and improved pollutant abatement technology , among other factors , have led to decreasing pollutant releases to air and water in europe . soil contamination in europe is , among other things , linked to industrial activity . waste transfers from industrial facilities in the eu have remained relatively stable in the last decade .
