Description
The onset of a green industrial revolution emphasises renewable energy for climate action and socio-economic justice. Despite its potential, current models risk replicating past extractive industries' failures. In Wales, the lack of lasting benefits from renewable projects, particularly in former coal communities, highlights the need for policy changes granting communities greater stake and benefit from local resources. Collaboration and wealth redistribution within communities are vital for a sustainable, equitable transition.
