Ripple members' turbines have been hard at work this month, generating an impressive 5,484 MWh, almost £80K of energy bill savings and 2,917 Tonnes of CO₂ saved—the same as over 1M hard-working trees. A powerful step towards a greener future. 🌱
Take a look at Derril Water Solar Park from the sky! Our members' solar park is making headway with almost 60% of the panels being completed 🎉 Take a look here: bit.ly/4k6d7Nt

Today is World Energy Day 🌎⚡ We’re celebrating the power of green energy ownership. In December, our members’ wind farms generated enough to power over 1M homes for a day - a powerful example of what cooperative renewable energy ownership can achieve. Here's to a fairer energy transition for all.

A record-breaking December for Ripple members!
Total cooperative generation was the highest *ever* at over 8,000 MWh from both Kirk Hill and Graig Fatha wind farms. That's enough for over 1.1M households, about the same as powering all the homes in Greater Manchester for a day!
