Weardale Renewables CIC is a not for profit organisation based in Weardale County Durham
We have a live project for a 500 Kw Community Energy solar installation discretely located in a reclaimed quarry.
The land is secured and Government Community Energy Fund (CEF) Grant aid has been approved for funding
With the grant money we have engaged expert partners in planning, business modelling, ecology and technical design
Ecological assessments where completed this summer with positive results for planning application
The intention is to supply local businesses and domestic users energy via Energy Group Membership.
We are aiming to have a pre planning application with Durham County Council by Christmas
The current team have taken the project to this stage and we are now looking to add volunteers to the team to take it further
Enthusiasm is more important than experience or qualification
