Contributing sentiments towards policy:

63% : We will bring power home with our GB Energy, a publicly owned energy company building clean power for the first time in generations, with the profits flowing back to the British people.
61% :Miliband added: "In every other country driving forward with clean power, publicly owned energy generation is creating wealth and benefitting local people.
60% : Starmer and Miliband will announce that GB Energy will make available up to £600m in funding for local authorities and up to £400m in low-interest loans each year for communities, creating up to a million owners of renewable power by 2030.
60% : The early success of wind cooperatives in Denmark means 52% of wind energy is community owned, and in Germany at least 50% of onshore wind is citizen owned.
57% : "People want to know what our plans mean for their community: from onshore wind in Wales to rooftop solar panels in our cities to community energy in Scotland, Labour will seize the power of Britain's sun, wind and water to put clean power in the grid and profits in the pockets of the British people."
56% : The Local Power Plan will see projects such as solar panels being put on public land or the roofs of housing estates, and empower communities to come forward with their own bespoke projects for renewable energy projects directly owned by local people.
55% : As set out by Ed Miliband, GB Energy's renewable energy projects will create jobs, tackle energy bills and directly benefit local peoplePeople across the UK will receive cost of living discounts - such as reductions on their council tax - if their cities, towns and villages sign up to new "clean energy" projects, under ambitious plans to be announced by Labour tomorrow.
52% : "The next Labour government will be builders, not blockers, when it comes to clean power," said Starmer.
51% : Labour's plans stand in stark contrast with Tory policy, under which planning rules have in effect put a block on more onshore wind energy just as world leaders increase the urgency of their calls to tackle global warming.
