German community energy projects are not just fairy tales. Today, we speak with three German community renewables projects. Frank-Michael Uhle; he’s the climate action official in the county of Rhein-Hunsrück, where Europe's largest suspended footbridge, the Geierlay Bridge, was built with revenue from local wind farms. Stefan Bayerle operates a district heat network fired with renewables in the Bavarian village of Larrieden. And Melanie Bell is a member of the all-women's co-op Windfang.
