‘If we are seriously to tackle the major challenges posed by climate change, we need to rebalance our energy system to use more renewable resources. In the past, the Thames has generated electricity for Reading and local communities, and there is enormous potential for it do so again: I strongly support this important new initiative from the Reading Sustainability Centre, which will make a great contribution to tackling climate change’
