Community wind
Community wind is a growing sector of wind development.
The key feature of community wind is that local community members own and have a significant financial stake in the project beyond just land lease payments and tax revenu.
Community wind projects can be jointly owned by a variety of individuals including local small business owners, farmers, local organizations and municipal utilities.
The projects can range from a single turbine to a community-owned commercial-scale wind farm.
The projects keep more dollars in local communities, preserve local energy independence and protect the environment.

Participation?
Community wind doesnt mean citizens will get all the profit.
Power to the people? Greenwashing? Participationwashing?

REScoop.EU
In Europe several partners are united in REScoop.eu, a project development assistance  project under the Horizon programme of the European Commission.
Thanks to active support, the project partners will develop renewable energy projects and use part of the revenues to initiate energy efficiency investments in private homes and public buildings.
This approach aims to enforce the relationship between REScoops and local authorities.

Windenergy solutions (WES)
The “postalcode rose” (like a rose flower) is a Dutch fenomenom to prevent uncontrolled growth of the use of tax reduction by projects with renewables, previously only applied for solar panels.
The “WINDpostcoderoos” is an initiative where everyone located within or bordering the postal code region where the wind turbine is located can invest in realizing a new wind turbine. With an average return of 5% over 15 years.
Contribution range €250 to €1500 per household.
