The IRENES Land Use Tool is an online mapping facility that has been created from analyses conducted in an Interreg Europe project with funding from the Greater South East Net Zero Hub, five county councils, and the UK Energy Research Centre. It includes information on renewable electricity generation potentials and a wide variety of land use or environmental factors that are relevant to siting decisions. Users can explore these factors at a parish level or define their own areas of interest and examine the generation potential. 

At present, the tool coverage is the counties of Cambridgeshire, Essex, Hertfordshire, Norfolk, and Suffolk.
