Community Value

Wind energy is an inexhaustible resource that can be developed and used without polluting our environment.

Wind energy also provides an exciting opportunity to grow and diversify rural economies while supporting government policy toward renewable energy development.

Wind Energy Profits for Communities

RidgeWind believes in supporting the communities in which it operates. A portion of our revenues are shared with the local community for community service programmes.

The recently constructed Bagmoor Wind Farm will contribute a minimum of £24,000 every year to a community trust fund to be used on local projects. In addition RidgeWind have provided funding for several other community ventures. More information on these can be found within the News and Project sections of the site.

New Rural Jobs and Economic Diversification

The growth of sustainable wind energy projects in the rural UK means the creation of many new jobs in wind farm construction, operations and maintenance, as well as local infrastructure and business development.
