📣We’re on the BBC!

We’ve been featured on BBC News for our plan to launch Hull's first local energy club: Power Plangeo. We've already installed 23 solar panels at the Lonsdale Centre, saving them thousands of pounds a year. Now it's time to scale up, and we need your help.

We secured a £35k grant from Great British Energy to set up Power Plangeo, but grant rules mean we can't use it for an Energy Local training course we need. Without this training, we can't properly run the club.

We need £1,250 for:
⚡ Energy Local training course (£720)
⚡ Trainer travel & accommodation (£480)
⚡ Platform fees (£50)

Help us build the alternative energy system we need: community-owned, democratically controlled, keeping money local. Chip in through the link below if you’re able 🙏

We're building a new energy system in Hull ⚡

One where energy is made and sold in our communities, money stays local, and the people decide how it’s run 💪

Our first energy club launches in 2026 in the Plangeo substation area (covering parts of HU3/HU4/HU5 - see map above or go to our website to zoom in 🔎 www.powerhull.org

Swipe to see how it works and how you can get involved!

One down, where’s next? 👀

We just turned the Lonsdale Centre into Hull's first community POWER STATION 💪

£20k from Northern Power Grid Foundation, 23 solar panels, 24 kWh battery, installed by local firm Pure Renewables.

Energy bills slashed, power for 2 days when the grid fails 🔌

This was a big first step for us, so we celebrated with a special edition solarpunk Waffle 🌞❤️

What’s next? Hull's first local energy club launches in 2026, where buildings like this sell power directly to people in the area.

£24 from every £100 of your energy bill goes to corporate profits 💸 Meanwhile, 1 in 5 people in Hull live in fuel poverty, choosing between heating and eating.

The energy companies aren’t changing. Petitioning the government isn’t helping.

So we’re building a better system ourselves — follow to see it grow.
