Solar FAQs
What to expect as a resident living near a solar farm – we’ve compiled a list of the most frequently asked questions and answers.
Community benefit fund
Our Fieldstown, Ballaghaweary and Gerrardstown solar developments will operate a combined community benefit fund, which will support community projects in the local area.
By combining funds, we’re able to offer community groups larger, strategic grants – while still making smaller amounts available for a wide range of activities, facilities and services in the local area. Funds are designed in conjunction with the local community to ensure that our funding has a positive and lasting impact and prioritises sustainability goals.
Energia already operates a number of benefit funds which are all administered on our behalf by independent charitable trusts. The solar farm fund will begin allocating project grants one year after the start of commercial operation. We will advertise extensively through local media, local authorities and mailing list contacts.
Working with schools
Once up and running, Energia will be happy to facilitate school and college visits to our local solar developments. In the meantime, the Energia Renewables and Operations teams are keen to arrange school workshops and classroom talks on renewable energy.
