Westmill Wind Farm and Solar Park Guided Tour

About

The Westmill Wind Farm and Solar Park is a pioneering community energy hub, located in Oxfordshire near the Wiltshire border. Completed in 2011, Westmill is unique with both wind and solar community-owned electricity generation on one site. In fact, the solar park was the first community-owned of its kind in the UK, and at its inception it was thought to be the UK's first and the world's largest co-operatively run, community-owned solar installation.

Here is your chance to come and see how it all works!

Join us on-site at Westmill to discover renewable energy and the positive impact it has on our climate.
