Transition Edinburgh

Waterfront Edinburgh Ltd. Early in 2008, we agreed to work with Waterfront Edinburgh Limited (the City Council company promoting the regeneration of the North Edinburgh waterfront area), who were also looking at the opportunity for renewable energy, in a study which would look at the possibility of developing renewable energy in the North Edinburgh area. The Edinburgh Community Energy Cooperative successfully applied for a grant from the Energy Saving Trust for our share of the cost of commissioning consultants to carry out the study.
