Community Partnership
Ridge Clean Energy work in partnership with your community and local groups to discover where we can help make a real difference. This page will evolve as we know more about local projects and community needs.
As part of our work on the proposed Great Oaks Renewable Energy Park, we are already liaising with residents and local businesses.
There are a number of potential projects that the Great Oaks Renewable Energy Park could support. We welcome your views and inputs on opportunities in the area where we could make a difference.
We are also fully aware of the impact that current energy costs are having on people. A significant portion of the community benefit would contribute towards energy costs for households surrounding the project, on an annual basis once the renewable park is up and running.
As well as community benefits, the Great Oaks Renewable Energy Park intends to deliver a substantial net gain in biodiversity, supporting the local environment. This would, for example, include species-rich seed mix in between the rows of solar panels to encourage birds, bees and other wildlife into the area.

Average completion time is 5 minutes.
What We Do
Successful projects require alignment of interests amongst landowners, communities, policy makers, and businesses.
The Ridge team works hard to understand interests and build enduring partnerships.

Net Zero Community App
RCE's Net Zero Community App will help the local community measure and achieve their carbon reduction.
Net Zero Community will encourage and facilitate environmental behaviours. Local lift sharing, food and item swapping, and local space bookings are all application features that can be used to affect immediate environmental change.
RCE can make Net Zero Community available for free in your community. Our team will identify people and local groups who are interested in supporting its adoption and success. Please reach out if you would like to be involved.
