About CSI
Clear Site Infrastructure CIC was established to develop commercial energy infrastructure with community benefit embedded into its long-term structure.
Why CSI Was Founded
CSI was established to explore whether commercial energy infrastructure could be structured differently — creating value for hosts and operators while providing a mechanism through which successful opportunities can generate long-term community benefit.
CSI is currently developing its first opportunities and building the systems, governance and partnerships required to support future growth.
Why A Community Interest Company?
The Community Interest Company structure reflects the belief that infrastructure can create value for hosts, operators and the wider community simultaneously.
CSI's CIC structure and asset lock ensure assets and surpluses are applied in support of its community purpose, subject to governing documents, project agreements and applicable CIC regulations.
Origins
Built in Corby
CSI was founded in Corby and is currently focused on progressing opportunities within Corby and the surrounding area. Corby is not simply where CSI is registered — it is where the model is being built and tested. The longer-term objective is to establish a credible, repeatable approach that could be deployed within other communities.
The Founder
Jack Simpson
Founder & Managing Director
Jack Simpson founded Clear Site Infrastructure CIC to explore whether commercial energy infrastructure could be structured to serve a broader purpose than financial return alone.
Where opportunities progress, CSI's role is to coordinate development while working alongside appropriately qualified legal, technical, financial and delivery specialists.
