"We only take 1/5000th part of the energy that the sun sprays on the earth every day. 1/5000th part would provide all the energy requirements of humanity. And the fact that we haven't tapped it directly before is really extraordinary."
David Attenborough
This summer solstice, we want to celebrate this power of the sun, and the clean, renewable energy it can give us. Communities across the UK are stepping up to David Attenborough's plea for more solar, by working together to create new ways of powering our villages, towns and cities.
And it's already happening. As the days get longer, solar eclipsed coal as a power source with solar generating 50% more electricity than coal across the month of May.
On this longest day of 2016, we want to shout out about the community energy sector (especially solar of course), on social media. We would like as many of us as possible to share photos of solar panels and why they love solar with the hashtag #SolsticeSolar.
