Two artists in London raised £113,000 to install solar panels on dozens of houses on their street, reducing energy bills and carbon emissions

The project, which was partly funded through crowd-funding, demonstrates the power of collective action to tackle energy costs and global warming.

The project is expected to inspire others and drive community action, which has slowed in recent years.

Industry analysts say community projects tend to be more efficient than individual solar installations as costs fall with scale.

The project is being installed by Octopus Energy at cost, to raise awareness of the need for adaptation to renewable energy.
