Power Station - Film
2026-07-04 19:30 - 22:00 UTC | St Columba’s R.C, Plas Newton Lane, Chester, CH2 1SA
Cheshire West and Chester Green Party invite you to a screening of “Power Station”, a *fantastically enjoyable* film telling the true story of a North London neighbourhood raising funds to put roof-mounted solar panels onto two terraced streets.

This community screening is on the evening of Sat 4th July 7.30-10.00pm, at St Columba’s R.C. Church, Chester.

Rob Hopkins, of Transition Networks, says… “I can’t recommend this film enough. You’ll laugh. You’ll cry. You’ll kickstart a community-led renewable energy revolution”.”

This documentary follows the attempts by Hilary Powell and Dan Edelstyn to turn their Walthamstow street into an energy-generating collection of solar-powered Power Stations – a prototype for a new way of living, with the hope of galvanising a wider push towards sustainable alternatives.
The film documents Hilary and Dan pitching the idea to their neighbours, sleeping on the roof of their home to raise money and launching a bid for a Christmas number one single. The film will be followed by a panel discussion, and there will non alcoholic refreshments available before and after the film
