@cne_siar @argyllandbute

[Cornelia Helmcke @ConnyCastanea]

What limitations does the UK central energy grid pose for islanders in Scotland & for #NetZero? Which future pathways are communities envisioning? With one event completed @EMEC_Ltd, upcoming workshops in the Scottish Western Isles will further the discussion of these questions.
