Ovesco is one of Britain’s first community-owned renewable energy providers, formed to help our community invest in localised zero-carbon energy generation. We are now in talks with site owners on new projects. If you would like to invest with us please fill in the form below and we'll contact you when the next scheme is launched which we expect to be in a few months' time. Anyone in the UK can invest. Our model allows for 4% interest on investment and the capital repaid by the end of the scheme. If you own a site and are thinking about community-owned renewable energy generation, please contact us.
Ovesco's long-term plan is to make the Ouse Valley self-sufficient in energy. We are considering all forms of renewables including sun, wind, water, earth, anaerobic digestion and biomass. The Harveys Warehouse installation is the historic first step in our plan and we have several other sites in mind. If you have, or if your business has, a site that you would like to use for energy generation, please contact us at hello@ovesco.co.uk
OVESCO Limited is an Industrial & Provident Society for community benefit. It was set up in 2010 with the aim of providing the following services:
Investigating ways to produce Local Sustainable Power, exploiting renewable resources to produce heat and power for the benefit of the local community. This includes projects to use resources such as sun, wind, river, wave, tide, ground-source heat, anaerobic digestion and biomass fuel in a sensitive and sustainable way. The company is seeking to develop:
PV for industrial roofs: Ovesco is actively seeking potential roof space to lease in East Sussex for community PV systems. Please contact us if you have large flat roofs over 1,000M sq and would consider OVESCo running a PV system on your building.
Wind turbine and water hydro sites: If you have a windy site in East Sussex suitable for a medium size wind turbine such as on a farm or access to a river with a weir and want to generate power as part of a community project, please let us know.
Ovesco is working with Transition Town Lewes and other groups in the South East on ways to help reduce our reliance on fossil fuels and cut our greenhouse gas emissions. Both companies are not for profit, using all their resources as well as voluntary help to work towards a sustainable low carbon future. Our aim is to help the people in the Lewes District area and East Sussex find ways to cope with climate change and the rising cost of fossil fuels such as gas and oil.
If you want to help us or fund any of our projects to raise awareness about sustainable living and generate local sustainable power go to our contacts page and call us or e-mail hello@ovesco.co.uk.
