I am pleased to announce that, building on the success of previous years, Regen SW will shortly be producing its flagship Renewable Energy Progress Report: 2012 Annual Survey. The report provides a detailed analysis of progress which is used as the key source of information on renewable energy by commercial developers / installers, local authorities and planning departments, central government and local, regional and national media. A copy of the 2011 report can be found at www.regensw.co.uk/projects/support-for-decision-makers/annual-survey .

Your contribution is invaluable to this report. As a contributor your organisation name will be featured and you will receive a copy of the report (due to be issued in June). We would be most grateful if you could use the attached spreadsheet and send us your information/data by 20 April 2012. If you have any questions / concerns, please contact Josie Ashe or Jon Smart on 01392 494399, or email data@regensw.co.uk.Please indicate "Annual Survey" in the email subject line.

Regen SW is also offering its members the opportunity to help showcase what you have achieved, both in the report itself and on an ongoing basis through the Regen SW website. We would like to highlight the economic growth generated by renewable energy projects in the south west and to promote success stories via our website and project progress map. We have also agreed to provide DECC with success stories so that south west job creation and investment data feature more prominently in ministerial output [1]. Simply send any recent or future announcements you have on new projects, investments or jobs created to Josie Ashe on jashe@regensw.co.uk .

Finally, if you are interested in promoting your organisation through sponsoring the Annual Survey or other Regen SW initiatives, please contact Rachel Hayes, events and membership manager, on 01392 474374 or email rhayes@regensw.co.uk.
