Our ambitions and progress:

  1. We have trialled community energy projects in the borough by 2030.

There are currently no community renewable energy projects set up.

  1. We have increased total local solar generation by at least 1,000% by 2050, from a 2019 baseline.

Solar panel energy generation in the borough has increased since 2014 by over 1300%.

  1. TWBC has allocated local sites to new renewable projects in the borough by 2030 (subject to the Local Plan Review).

TWBC is currently progressing through the final phases of adopting a new local plan.
