Gloucester Community Solar Farm

Energise Gloucester is working with Komo Energy to develop the Gloucester Community Solar Farm. Energise Gloucester and Komo Energy are committed to giving local businesses, contractors and suppliers an opportunity to deliver or participate in the delivery of the Gloucester Community Solar Farm.

The Gloucester Community Solar Farm will be a 500 kW AC solar farm located near Gloucester and will make 25% of the electricity generated available to economically disadvantaged households at a discounted cost.

Komo Energy will shortly issue a Request for Proposals to suitable qualified contractors for the design and construction of the Gloucester Community Solar Farm. This expression of interest will help identify suitable local contractors that might wish to participate in the Request for Proposals process. It will also identify contractors and suppliers that may wish to be considered for subcontracting opportunities.
