Community solar PV scheme is national first

Eco2Solar, Solar PV, renewable energy

What is believed to be the first community based renewable-energy project at an NHS site is expected to deliver over 8 MWh of Solar PV electricity a year. The installation at Stratford-upon-Avon comprises 52 panels and was installed by Eco2Solar. This 10 kW scheme was put together by local energy co-operative Community Energy Warwickshire and South Warwickshire NHS Foundation Trust, which runs Stratford and Warwick Hospitals.

It is the first phase of a project which will see 50 kW of solar power installed at Warwick Hospital this year.

Community Energy Warwickshire was set up by Warwickshire residents to invest in renewable energy and help local communities to save energy. It has already raised over £100 000 of its target of £120 000 to fund the installations.
