The Regal Picturehouse, Henley-on-Thames – 8pm
Wednesday 19th November 2025
Inspired by lockdown mutual aid initiatives, artist-activists Hilary Powell and Dan Edelstyn decided to turn their street into an energy-generating powerhouse – a prototype for a new way of living, with the hope of galvanising a wider push towards sustainable alternatives.
Directed by the duo, POWER STATION charts their turbulent journey, from pitching the idea to their neighbours and sleeping on the roof of their home to raising finance and launching a bid for a Christmas number one single.
By turns funny and heartwarming, Powell and Edelstyn’s film is a vibrant portrait of their local neighbourhood, and a charming testament to the power of art in changing minds about what could be possible.
After the film, a live panel discussion will explore how Henley and nearby towns can join the movement towards locally generated, rooftop-based renewable energy.
The panel will be chaired by Rebecca Chandler-Wilder, Chair of Henley Town Council Climate & Nature Emergency Advisory Group (CANEAG), and she’ll be talking to:
- Lisa Warne, Director of CPRE Oxfordshire, campaigning for rooftop solar,
- Claudia Kalver, a specialist in Energy Markets & Technologies and CANEAG member
- Stuart Major, Director of R-eco co-op, a solar installation company
