Introduction to the Tiverton Energy Centre

A centre of excellence for the production of renewable electricity and fuel for the Tiverton community.

Tiverton Energy Centre has to be one of the most exiting sustainable community developments of its kind in the UK . Over the next 5 years, the aim is to make Tiverton, with its 20,000 population, 100% non-dependent on fossil fuels. It will transform Tiverton into a zero waste to landfill town resulting in reduced greenhouse gas emissions, it will help to reduce our impact on the environment and will help slow down climate change. It will result in a reduced waste disposal cost for every household and could help to reduce council tax charges!

By using waste products and agricultural crops from Tiverton and the surrounding area the Tiverton Energy Centre will produce electricity and fuels as well as fertiliser for growing local crops and food.

The Energy Centre will provide sustainable fuel and food security, something which could become more important in the not too distant future. It will provide Tiverton with employment, tourism and education opportunities. An added benefit means that the extra revenue created will be kept within the Mid Devon community creating local regeneration and wealth.

Tiverton will become a sustainable UK town, putting it well and truly on the map.
