Could you be saving money on energy bills and cutting carbon emissions?
We build and manage community-owned renewable energy projects with businesses, schools, and communities across Oxfordshire.
Work with Low Carbon Hub to install a community-owned solar PV array and:
- Host a solar PV array on your rooftop – at no cost to you
- We are a trusted and experienced local partner, with over 50 projects in operation
- We take full responsibility for the operation, maintenance, and insurance for the array for the lifetime of our roof lease with you
- You benefit from using the renewable energy generated on site, buying it at a discounted rate directly from us
- Your energy generation benefits the community – our profits are used to fund further carbon-cutting activities and support the local community.
