As the world moves towards a low carbon economy and with potential disruptions to the fossil fuel market, renewable energy production is an attractive investment opportunity. Renewable energy sources, like solar farms, are a cleaner, more sustainable way to power our homes – as well as potentially powering your pension growth.
We’ve partnered with Octopus Renewables to invest billions in green energy around the world. It’s a big step towards our goal of net-zero carbon emissions and will help to reduce our financial carbon footprint.
So far, we’ve invested our members’ money in solar farms, wind farms and renewable energy power plants. To launch this exciting new project, we invited some of our members to a tour of a solar farm to show them where their money goes.
Together with Octopus Renewables, we’ve purchased a 15.4MW solar farm here in the UK. It’s around the same size as five football pitches and has 60,000 solar panels. This particular project shows that we can revive brownfield sites that are unsuitable for other developments, using them to generate green energy.
