Why hasn’t every big roof got solar?
In an energy and climate crisis, it just doesn’t make sense
We’re a not-for-profit co-operative, 100% owned by our members from all over the UK.
We’re out to build new solar wherever it works best – on rooftops of large buildings, or on low-grade land. There are thousands of suitable sites across the UK. We’ve already built 11 solar rooftops across the country (like this beauty in Shropshire) and we’re working on many more.
We’ve raised over £2m from our community share offer – members of the public directly investing from £100. You can support us by investing in our shares or our new bond offer.

We’re always interested in hearing from people who want solar on their large building or who would like to volunteer to get more solar built.
