Energy Cooperatives
Energy cooperatives are organizations owned and operated by a group of individuals to produce and share renewable energy, like solar or wind power. Members pool resources and make decisions together, promoting local energy production and sustainability. This collaborative approach helps reduce costs, increases energy access, and supports community development. Unlike traditional energy companies that prioritize profit, energy cooperatives aim to benefit their members and the local environment, fostering a sense of community and resilience against energy price fluctuations.
