- The average annual share interest since Isle of Skye Renewables Co-op began is 9.1%
- Members will receive advice and assistance on reducing energy bills through energy conservation
- Direct involvement increases awareness of environmental issues at the grass roots level and provides an opportunity to do something positive about climate change.

The energy conservation trust will provide information and grants for efficiency measures within the locality of the turbines to individual homes and community organisations and fund environmental books for local schools.
