Calderdale Current
A local community energy-buying scheme through Hawley Energy and Baseline Power.
Choose what your energy offer puts back into Calderdale.
Customers receive an offer with no contribution at all. You can consider what is affordable for your organisation, then choose whether to contribute from 0.1p to 0.5p per kWh of electricity. There is no prize for choosing the highest figure.
0.1p to 0.5p
Your chosen contribution per kWh of electricity
You choose the contribution level. The offer can begin at no contribution, then rise from 0.1p to 0.5p per kWh if that works for your organisation.
Electricity participation starts the grant eligibility clock. Gas does not contribute to the fund. The fund is managed by the Community Foundation for Calderdale.
How it works
A contribution model shaped around what you can afford.

Start with no contribution

If you choose to participate, select a contribution from 0.1p to 0.5p per kWh of electricity. You choose the level. There is no prize for choosing the highest figure.
03 / The clock

04 / The fund
Reach £10,000, then apply
The fund must reach £10,000 before eligible organisations can receive grant support and before grant applications open.
The result for you
Support for the right energy projects, subject to approval.
Charities, private companies, community interest companies and non-profit organisations may be eligible to apply for grants for suitable energy-saving, carbon-reduction and environmental projects. These grants are for those measures only, not general business-cost support.
Eligibility, award levels and project approval are determined by the Community Foundation for Calderdale. Hawley Energy does not decide who receives grants.
