Welcome

Welcome to Leominster Sunrise Co-operative!

We installed a 91kW solar photovoltaic array on the new primary school in Leominster, Herefordshire. Its purpose is to generate as much solar electricity as possible for the school to use, to reduce their reliance on fossil fuel based electricity.  It also reduces the school’s energy bill by around £5000 a year. The funds to install it were raised through a community share issue in 2014 and the array was turned on when the school opened in early November 2014.

In 2025 Leominster Sunrise Co-op was wound down and its assets transferred to the Big Solar Co-op which has taken over the running of the array.
