The South Brent Community Energy Society, which was established by members of Sustainable South Brent to take forward its medium size wind turbine project, has a Community Share Offer currently open to anyone who wishes to support the scheme. To date, applications for half the £420,000 needed to fund the 225kW machine, which already has planning permission, have been received. Surplus from the sale of electricty will be ploughed back into energy saving measures in Brent's community buildings and help in the fight against fuel poverty. Anyone interested in applying for shares should download the prospectus and application form from www.sbces.org.uk and are invited to attend an Open Meeting on Tuesday 5th March at 7.30pm in South Brent Village Hall to find out more.
