Our eyes are fixed on a better future; let’s make the switch from fossil to sustainable, generating clean energy today, for generations to come.
Our story
It started with one powerful idea: to build a wind farm
That wind farm attracted lots of people, people that believed in our vision of a clean energy future. Since then, our investor community has grown to over 6,000 individuals, organisations, and institutions all committed to being part of the solution.
And together we have grown our impact by building or funding the construction of 42 renewable energy projects, the majority of which we still own and operate. In addition to wind and hydro, we have invested in solar PV, battery storage, geothermal, ground source heat and the early commercial scale tidal generation capacity. To date, we have generated over 2.2 million MWh of clean electricity, enough to meet the annual demand of 1.3 million UK homes and avoiding the emission of over 1 million tonnes of CO2e.
To ensure we get as much new capacity built as possible, we take an innovative and flexible approach to investment, tailoring our funding to best suit the needs of the project.
