GROUND MOUNT SOLAR
Community owned solar power at scale.
Tackling net zero from the ground up
We develop community scale solar projects in liaison with local communities, parish councils and landowners. Ground mount solar achieves economies of scale, delivering power more cheaply than rooftop solar, and is essential to achieve national and local climate change and energy security targets.
Community ownership.
Shared benefit.
In contrast to purely commercial projects, our community ownership model prioritises the local people, enabling communities to drive positive change and energy security on their own terms.
Local control & energy security
Local people taking control over energy, improving local energy security and community resilience.
Reinvesting surplus for the community
Surplus income goes back into community benefit projects, funding carbon-cutting initiatives and alleviating fuel poverty.
Nature-positive development
Projects enhance biodiversity and create new spaces like community orchards, and increase access for local residents.
How does it work?
Where can they BE located?
Ground mount solar projects need to have available grid capacity and close proximity to a grid connection point.
Who Buys the Power?
We sell the electricity generated to an energy supplier through the wholesale electricity market, or to large local energy consumers through long-term power purchase agreements that provide price security for both parties.
Can I buy directly?
Not yet… we’re currently exploring how we can enable local residents to buy cheaper, greener electricity from our generating sites.
