Renewable Energy

Our ambitions and progress:
- We have trialled community energy projects in the borough by 2030.
There are currently no community renewable energy projects set up.
- 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%.
- 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.
