Churches Investing in the Clean Energy Future: Case Studies
Churches and religious organisations are involved in creative ways of investing in and supporting the production of renewable energy – for example, through investment in community energy projects and renewable energy companies.
We have collected some case studies, including Salisbury and Gloucester Cathedrals, to demonstrate how churches across the UK are investing in the clean energy transition and showcase some of the options available for the investment of church funds in renewable energy and clean technologies.
