Community Energy in North Somerset
Our purpose is to help local communities to reduce energy costs and become more sustainable by reducing their carbon footprint. More specifically we aim to raise funds from the community to enable us to install locally-owned renewable energy systems and use the surplus income from these systems to fund work that reduces people’s energy consumption – for example, by improving home energy efficiency.

Covid-19
During the Covid-19 situation, Low Carbon Gordano Ltd continued to operate as normal, providing solar-generated electricity into the grid and for our partners. All of our schemes are outperforming forecasts and we are confident that our long-term financial returns remain secure as they are backed by Government-guaranteed electricity supply contracts.
Although the pandemic slowed some things down, we have continued to work on possible new developments whilst ensuring that our existing schemes are properly maintained.
