Commonplace empowers local authorities and developers to unlock the full potential of community-led energy initiatives. By providing a platform for residents to actively participate in energy planning and decision-making, we foster a deep sense of ownership and responsibility. Our platform enables communities to share knowledge, identify opportunities, and collaborate on innovative energy solutions. By harnessing the collective wisdom of residents, local authorities can develop more effective, sustainable, and equitable energy strategies. Commonplace helps build resilient communities where energy is a shared resource, driving positive change and improving quality of life for all.

"Commonplace helped us to understand what’s happening in the neighbourhood and be inspired by local residents to produce a design that was truly collaborative and inclusive.”
"The Commonplace platform has helped us to ensure the voices of as many of those who stand to benefit from, or are impacted by, schemes are heard. The benefit of Commonplace is the adaptability of its service allowing us to mould and shape the platform to maximise engagement across a range of quite different engineering schemes."
