Best Ashden Moments 2010: Simon picks the publication of Power to our neighbourhoods

For the third in our end-of-year series, where members of the Ashden team choose favourite moments from the year, Simon Brammer, UK programme manager, picks the publication of Power to our neighbourhoods.

For me one of the best moments of 2010 was the publication of our research in June which was a culmination of a year's work and contained the wisdom of many of our UK winners.

The report drew on current best practice to demonstrate how we can cut energy bills, reduce CO2, create jobs and help secure our energy future by scaling up and replicating local sustainable energy programmes.

The work has been well received and is having a direct impact on UK policy.
