Liberal Democrats are calling on Basingstoke and Deane Council to make a significant investment in renewable energy. In a motion seconded by John on Thursday 7 October, the Liberal Democrats called on the Council to:
1. Undertake an audit of Council owned property for renewable energy generation
2. Consider how the Council can make a step-change in the provision of renewable energy in Basingstoke and Deane and urgently develop a “Green Energy Action Plan” to utilise the potential to generate environmentally sustainable green energy on its council owned building and land property
3. Work within the Local Strategic Partnership and the new Local Enterprise Partnership to promote provision of renewable energy.
Unfortunately, the Council’s ruling Conservative Group voted the motion down on the night.
