A new energy supply company is to be launched which aims to cut millions of pounds from bills in some of Scotland's most disadvantaged communities.
Our Power Energy is the first in the UK to operate on a non-profit distribution basis.
It has been founded by 35 organisations including some of Scotland's largest housing associations.
It plans to be selling heat and power to tenants in 200,000 homes across Scotland by 2020.
The consortium expects to save its members up to 10% on their household utility bills, compared with standard commercial tariffs.
It will enter the market at the end of 2015 as an Ofgem-licensed supplier of gas and electricity.
