COMMUNITY

Community Benefit Fund

We are excited to offer an industry leading Community Benefit Fund of £8,000 per MW per year (index-linked) for the operational lifetime of Foel Fach Wind Farm (up to 40 years).

We are working with Mantell Gwynedd and CVSC (Community and Voluntary Support Conwy) to explore ways to ensure that this fund is appropriately set up so that it meets local needs, and that the application process is straightforward.

Shared ownership

Welsh Government has a target for 1.5 GW of renewable energy generation to be in local or shared ownership by 2035.

We are pleased to be working in partnership with Community Energy Wales with the aim to develop a community ownership model where local residents, businesses and community groups would be able to buy shares in the wind farm and receive a return on their investment.
