Laxaþjóð | A Salmon Nation

Our relationship with nature not only defines our history, it shapes our future, too. Yet beneath the surface of Iceland’s fjords, an industrial fish farming method threatens to destroy one of Europe’s last remaining wildernesses. Laxaþjóð | A Salmon Nation tells the story of a country united by its lands and waters, and the power of a community to protect the wild places and animals that helped forge its identity.

Community Energy in France

With its windy coasts and frequent sunshine, France has great renewable-energy potential and a growing community-energy movement.

It Could Be So Easy

The tools and framework for community energy already exist in France. Now, its citizens have the power to make community-owned renewable energy an even bigger reality. All it takes is our involvement and willingness to act for a cleaner, more equitable energy system.

Join an energy community. Invest in one. Or build your own.

Stories of Community Energy

Les Survoltés d’Aubais

Meet Les Survoltés d’Aubais. They used to protest and fight shale-gas drilling but decided instead to use their passion, time and money to build a renewable-energy community.

Mont Blanc 2.0

American Zoe Hart didn't know anything about community energy, and to learn, she had to navigate complex French administrative processes and new French words. Along the way, she found people willing to help (and those not so willing to help). But she managed to start an energy cooperative in a French mountain town. This is her story.

A Gift for the Future

One grandfather in France decided to invest his savings in a renewable-energy community—as a gift for his grandchildren and the future.

"I have subscribed to Shared Energy shares for my grandchildren. I worry about their future. If they ask me later what I did to change things, I can look them in the eye."
-Robert Rochaud, Énergie Partagée shareholder

Get Involved

Together, we can restore power to the people and bring the benefits of clean energy home.


Join an Energy Community

Community-energy projects in France are already widespread and successful, with Enercoop and Énergie Partagée leading the way. And there’s potential for many more.

Énergie Partagée includes more than 300 community-energy projects, and they’ve had over 18,000 citizens invest.

Enercoop has 54,000 members within its 11 cooperatives around France. They’re also an energy provider, and they source clean, renewable power from Énergie Partagée’s cooperatives.

Switching your power provider to one that sources from a community-owned energy project is an easy way to get involved. But becoming a member of your local energy community will make the biggest impact.
