Kelsale-cum-Carlton is a medium-sized village near Suffolk’s beautiful East coast and Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). There are some 600 houses, home to around 1,000 people.

In 2012, thanks to a grant from the Local Energy Assessment Fund (LEAF), we started a journey that led to the establishment, in March 2014, of Power4KcC – a community owned community benefit co-op (or Industrial Provident Society) devoted to renewable energy and energy conservation.

Who are we?

Power4KcC (KCCE) is managed by a Board of volunteer directors and a Company Secretary. We started life as a sub-committee of Kelsale-cum-Carlton Parish Council and subsequently transformed ourselves into the inaugural board once the company was registered. We were then voted in as full Directors at the Inaugural General Meeting in 2014.

You’ll find details of the current directors’ backgrounds on our Meet the team page.
