Wind Energy Project – Pen y Cymoedd – Hirwaun

Pen y Cymoedd Wind Energy Project is a 76 turbine development located on land managed by Natural Resources Wales within Rhondda Cynon Taf and Neath Port Talbot. The development is the largest onshore wind farm in England and Wales. Once operational the project will generate enough electricity to meet the domestic need of 140,000 homes per annum.

Once operational the project will provide a Community Fund of £1.8 million per annum for more than 20 years. More than 3000 residents of the upper Rhondda, Cynon, Afan and Neath Valleys had their say on what they think the money could do in the area. There is huge potential within all the ideas that have come in – developing the possibilities so they can deliver maximum benefit is the next task for the community.

The event will consist of a presentation from the team followed by a tour of the project.
