Creating a better way together

At OnPath Energy, we believe that no one should be left behind as we make the switch to cleaner energy.

That’s why we are proud to be a part of the group supporting East Ayrshire Council’s Community Renewable Energy Project (CoRE), a project that aims to shape the benefits that come with renewable energy projects so that rural communities and economies can thrive for many years.

The CoRE Project can be broken down into four key aims:

Ensure our communities have the skills and qualifications to contribute to the low carbon sector supply chain.
Help communities make affordable choices to heat and power their homes, to tackle fuel poverty.
Make places which benefit our communities’ health and wellbeing.
Make homes and buildings more sustainable and comfortable for people to live and work in.

Glen Water Wind Farm has been designed with these aims in mind, combined with meaningful engagement we’ve had with local people, we have created a proposal that reflects the needs of the local community as well as the region’s wider socio-economic goals.
