We are a Social Enterprise focused on strengthening communities through consultancy, research and the development of low-carbon ICT products. We work across the renewable energy, carbon management, and energy access sectors.
Founded in Edinburgh in 2011, we have built a reputation as one of UK's foremost community energy organisations and have developed a suite of ICT products which are being commercialised through affiliated companies Inclusive Energy and Farm-Hand.
Since we began, our core mandate has been to address the climate emergency through citizen-led renewable energy initiatives. We help non-specialists to understand their climate impacts and to develop their own energy solutions.
Scene has offices in Edinburgh, Liverpool and London - with projects ongoing in countries around the world. To find out more about our ongoing work and past projects, take a look at our Projects Timeline.
