Why Renewables?
We are in the decisive decade for tackling climate change. Despite recent progress in many sectors, global emissions of greenhouse gases continue to be dangerously high. At Cubico we believe that this must change and without focused effort, we risk breaching the 1.5°C of warming that the IPCC believes will see many natural systems cross dangerous points of no return, triggering lasting changes and transforming life as we know it.
The UK has ambitious targets for the deployment of clean energy by 2030 and Cubico is working to translate this into action on the ground. We want to accelerate the roll-out of established, renewable, proven technologies such as onshore wind, solar PV and BESS.
Onshore wind
We are committed to the development of onshore wind projects across the UK.
The plunging costs of onshore wind in comparison to fossil-fuel based generation is helping accelerate the transition to a low carbon economy. We work with major turbine suppliers to ensure that performance from our wind farms is optimised from the start. Our development team’s track record for schemes spans across the UK, both operational and consented, include: Frodsham Wind Farm, Scout Moor, Port of Liverpool, Beaw Field, Mossy Hill and Bilsthorpe. Cubico’s operational onshore wind projects include: Penmanshiel, Middlewick, Wandylaw, Chiplow, Kelmarsh and Winwick.
Solar PV
Large scale solar PV will continue to play an important role in decarbonising the UK’s electricity market.
As an owner and operator of solar farms, we understand the siting, development, and operational considerations required to deliver projects. We are developing a bespoke ‘private-wire’ solution for Doncaster Sheffield Airport and are originating projects across the UK. In the UK, Cubico’s operational solar PV project include Grantham, Overton, Wisbech, Hadlow, Newlands, Barton Close, Bake Farm, New Mains, Broxted, Southfields, Kinblethmont and Owl’s Hatch.
