CleanEarth have been on a mission recently to get Bristol’s beverage businesses generating their own renewable energy. In the last few months, we’ve completed solar PV projects in the city for three breweries and two coffee roasting companies, and they are all now reaping the dual benefits of a smaller carbon footprint and cheaper electricity.…
This year we’ve seen a major uptick in clients looking to extend their existing solar PV systems. We are on track to complete at least five extensions, representing almost 500 kW of new renewable capacity. While some of the systems were originally installed by CleanEarth, we have also extended arrays that were completed by other…
It’s not just the big multi-national brewers who are investing in renewable energy. We’ve recently completed solar installations for a couple of the UK’s finest craft beer producers.
CleanEarth have secured planning consent for a 4.1 MW wind turbine, with a tip height of 135m – to be erected within the Clay Area, in Cornwall – a landscape characterised by the effects of china clay extraction. The success of this project is due to years of focused effort – in overcoming aviation concerns,…
Despite the prevailing chaos in the world, 2021 has started well for CleanEarth, with projects for four wind turbines receiving planning permission. When commissioned, these turbines will add to our ever-increasing Scottish portfolio, which is forecast to generate in excess of 200 GWh per year by 2025. This is already making a significant contribution to…
We weren’t just busy with super-sized wind turbines in Wales as 2020 came to a close. We were also putting the finishing touches to one of Dorset’s largest renewables installations. The 400kW system we installed for William Hughes Group in Stalbridge had 40% of its capital cost funded by Low Carbon Dorset, and is the…
This two minute video shows some of the work that went into installing the Magor Brewery wind turbine, which is now providing low-cost, low-carbon electricity directly into Budweiser Brewing Group in South Wales.
Our latest turbine installation went live in South Wales today, and is now providing renewable energy directly to Budweiser Brewing Group’s brewery in Magor. This is our largest wind project to date, equipped with turbine blades that – at 68 metres – we believe are the longest ever to enter commercial operation on UK soil.…
This week saw the arrival of the longest turbine blades to go into commercial operation on UK soil. At 68 metres long the swept area of these blades will be the equivalent of two Wembley football pitches, and the total height of the finished turbine will be fully 150m (just under 500 feet). Long…
Our latest solar installation makes an important environmental statement for Cornwall’s leading concrete manufacturer. Based in Bissoe in the heart of a former tin-mining area, Cornish Concrete is a family-run business that takes its environmental responsibilities seriously. This is their latest step towards reducing the impact of their own products along with that of the…
