Abstract
12 % of the total EU energy consumption will by the year 2010, be covered by renewable energy sources. This is the objective that the Community agreed on in its White Paper on "renewable energies". At the same time, an European-wide action plan has been set up. In order to achieve these goals, local communities do need to actively contribute to this. In Sherwood - member of Energie-Cités - a private company, "Sherwood Environmental Village Ltd", has been set up on the initiative of Sherwood and Newark District Council to redevelop a former British Coal land.
