Two years ago, 130 people attended for two days, thinking deeply together about what Cornwall’s energy future should look like. We wanted to bring that community back together and see what had happened. This report presents the outcomes of the workshop, as a contribution to the ongoing energy vision for Cornwall. Many thanks to all of the participants for bringing energy and enthusiasm to the day, to our lunch sponsor Cornwall New Energy and event sponsor Good Energy.

  • Greenwashing Vs. Renewable Energy Generation

    Greenwashing Vs. Renewable Energy Generation

    Greenwashing Vs. Renewable energy generation: which energy companies are making a real difference? Tackling the climate crisis requires that we reduce the UK’s carbon footprint. As individuals an important way we can do this is to reduce our energy use. This reduces our carbon footprints. We can also make sure: • All the electricity we use is generated renewably in the UK. • The energy company we give our money to only deals in renewable electricity. • That the company we are with actively supports the development of new additional renewable generation in the UK. 37% of UK electricity now comes from renewable energy, with onshore and offshore wind generation rising by 7% and 20% respectively since 2018. However, we don’t just need to decarbonise 100% of our electricity. If we use electricity for heating and transport, we will need to generate much more electricity – and the less we use, the less we will need to generate. REGOs/GoOs – used to greenwash. This is how it works: • If an energy generator (say a wind or solar farm) generates one megawatt hour of electricity they get a REGO (Renewable Energy Guarantee of Origin). • REGOs are mostly sold separately to the actual energy generated and are extremely cheap – about £1.50 for a typical household’s annual energy use. • This means an energy company can buy a megawatt of non-renewable energy, buy a REGO for one megawatt of renewable energy (which was actually bought by some other company), and then claim their supply is renewable even though they have not supported renewable generation in any way.

    Georesources Cornwall Working Paper

    VERSION 15 August 2019 WORKING PAPER Version 10 October 2019 Georesources Cornwall Recommendations for development of the Georesources sector in Cornwall 1 VERSION 15 August 2019 REMIX project The aim of this Georesources Cornwall document is to advise Cornwall Council and Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Local Enterprise Partnership on the mining and related opportunities in Cornwall and how best they might be encouraged and facilitated. It is an output of the REMIX project. REMIX was funded by Interreg Europe to encourage resource efficient and environmentally and socially acceptable production of raw materials by working with regional policy instruments. It brought together partners and stakeholders across nine European regions, at different stages of the mining cycle, to share knowledge and develop best practice guidelines. Camborne School of Mines, University of Exeter was the partner for the region. In Cornwall we brought together stakeholders, especially Cornwall Council and the companies in the Cornwall Mining Alliance for workshops on specific topics and facilitated travel to European partners to a series of peer review meetings to learn from their activities and experience. A peer review visit of European partners to Cornwall was held in May 2018. Various interviews were also held with individual businesses. Expertise external to the university was used to help compile information, especially on mineral rights, mine water geothermal energy, the Cornwall Mining Alliance business cluster and potential economic development through growth of this sector. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Contents Summary recommendations 1.
