Governance

Harborough Energy is a social enterprise set up as a cooperative (with a limited company registration) with the specific charter aim to deliver benefits to the local community of Market Harborough and returns to investors in its renewable energy projects. The volunteer directors run the organisation but do not gain from any profits generated. Directors can be engaged for their expertise in a specific capacity. Any such engagements will be declared in monthly meeting minutes.
