About Cwm Arian Renewable Energy
CARE, standing for Cwm Arian Renewable Energy, started its journey in 2011. After 13 years of hard work of campaigning and fundraising, CARE successfully put up a 700kW wind turbine to generate clean energy. This wind turbine is community owned.
Although it is still going strong, the initial excitement and success of the turbine seem like many moons ago. Having generated millions of kilowatts of renewable energy, the team now provides a wide variety of community interest projects. Experience and income gained from the turbine project have enabled us to develop other community projects focusing on landscape restoration, creating an eco-friendly space for arts in the community, setting up rural enterprises, and providing an energy advice service.
Over the years we've worked with other communities, businesses and individuals across Pembrokeshire; sharing what we have learned along the way, to help build resilience, through community action and enterprise.
