Devon County Council’s Renewable Energy for Devon (RE4D) scheme is boosting rural regeneration in the county by stimulating both supply and demand for renewable energy. RE4D focuses on small and medium enterprises providing advice and grants which have led to over 100 renewable energy installations with a total installed capacity of over 2 MW. In the last two years RE4D has provided and helped secure over £1 million worth of grants. Fifty-five green jobs have been created and a further 16 safeguarded through the scheme.
