Leominster Primary School
Leominster Sunrise Co-operative installed a 90kW solar photovoltaic array on a new build primary school in Leominster, Herefordshire in 2014. Its purpose is to generate as much solar electricity as possible for the school to use, to reduce their reliance on fossil fuel based electricity. It will also reduce the school’s energy bill by around £5000 a year.
Through a co-ops merger procedure approved by the members and Board of Leominster Sunrise Co-operative the Big Solar Co-op will take on the operations and maintenance of the solar array. This will free up members of the Leominster Sunrise Co-operative to work on new projects and they will all have the opportunity to join the Big Solar Co-op as Volunteer and/or Investor members.
