“We empower community members to have a direct stake in a local project and the chance to access healthy financial returns, whilst helping to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and dependence on fossil fuels. Thrive stepped in at short notice to meet the funding gap – in the near future we will be raising a share issue on behalf of the local community and are thrilled to put renewable energy back in the hands of local ownership.”

“This was the ideal project for Thrive to invest in as we believe in a clean, smart energy system that is powered by the investment of many. We invest in renewable energy through innovative financing and now broaden our scope from onshore wind and hydro to include solar and other sustainable solutions. This is a further example of how Thrive contributes to the democratisation of ownership of the UK’s energy future.”
