About Us

Community Windpower Ltd was formed in 2001 and is an independent, UK based company, who works with local communities to build windfarms that can provide economic, educational and environmental benefits to local schools and whole communities.

We believe in an open and consultative approach with these local communities during the development stage of the project and prior to the submission of a planning application.

By developing small to medium scale windfarms we are able to design sites that are sympathetic to local landscapes and can provide local generation to meet local energy needs.

We have a small team of professional staff who are committed to renewable energy to help reduce the serious threat that Climate Change now poses.

Our first windfarm in Dalry, North Ayrshire, was commissioned in 2006 and has generated enough power for over 12,000 homes in its first year of operation, around 57 Gwh. Our second windfarm, Aikengall Community Windfarm near Dunbar, East Lothian, was consented in 2007 and is now in full operation generating 48MW of clean, green electicity.

We have also recently been granted planning permission for Davidstow Community Windfarm, a 50MW scheme in Cornwall.
