We have recently installed a 10kW vertical axis wind turbine which feeds the main farmhouse and a 50kW ground mounted solar array which feeds Sunset Lodge, The Cottage and the main farmhouse and what we don't use is exported back to the grid.

The solar array was installed by M3 Solar of Folkestone. Feel free to have a look and ask Malcolm any questions.
