Our renewable energy projects have generated...12,401MWh from 1st April 2021 to end of March 2022
That’s on target for the year to date
Equivalent to the electrical demand from 4,000 homes during that period
Meaning a carbon reduction of 3,140 Tonnes CO2e
Equivalent to 166,000 journeys from Bath to Edinburgh via train
Retaining income that would otherwise drain out of the local area worth:
£521,000
BWCE Energy Project Performance – Year to Date
Our Projects
In the 10 years since its inception in 2010 BWCE has built five ground mounted solar arrays (solar farms) and installed solar pv on the roofs of eleven schools and four community buildings. We also own one modern water wheel. Through our Community Solar 2020 project, we aim to double our solar generation capacity over the next few years.
Community Solar
Install community funded solar panels on your building to cut carbon, cut costs and support your community
Or if you are in BWCE’s local area, help us find suitable rooftops by becoming a Solar Roof Spotter
Solar Streets
Solar Streets operated in two streets in the Bear Flat area of Bath. We installed solar pv and batteries and tested a community approach to electricity demand management.
It was part of the OpenLV programme which made local electricity data openly available for the first time ever, to benefit local communities and the wider energy industry.
