We’re delighted to announce that our £1.15m grant application to the European Regional Development Fund for our hydro scheme at Netham Weir has been approved!

It was a tough process and we’re very pleased to have come through it successfully. We can now press ahead with the remaining development work and start procuring the main construction contracts.

Many thanks to everyone who’s invested in the share offer so far, and welcome to all new Bristol Energy Cooperative members.

We’re also immensely grateful to everyone who donated to the original Crowdfund that we ran. This enabled us to progress the early-stage development work on the scheme.
