Although the Co-operative has no immediate plans to develop such resources, it has built up some knowledge of these renewable energy facilities and can refer enquiries to appropriate organizations.

Should opportunities arise, Countryside Energy will assess development opportunities in this area of renewable energy to the benefit of the Co-operative, its Members and the hosting organization.

The Co-operative's members can bring equity to such projects, sharing or paying in whole for developments, with Members receiving dividends on their Preference Shares.
