Aimed at community groups involved in renewable energy and low-carbon projects, this annual survey builds on previous years to provide the most comprehensive view of community energy across Scotland and the UK as a whole. Your input helps highlight sector achievements, strengthens the case for community-led energy and influences government policy and key decision-makers.

SOTS is a collective effort by Community Energy Scotland, Community Energy England, and Ynni Cymunedol Cymru (Community Energy Wales).  A link to the 2025 State of the Sector Portal where you can register for this year’s survey and submit your data is provided below, and previous SOTS reports can viewed here –  Welcome | State of the Sector
