Octopus Energy Generation is partnering with turbine manufacturer EWT to repower up to 1000 existing onshore wind turbines in the UK to help boost energy security.
The older wind turbines Octopus and EWT identified across England, Scotland and Wales, have already been powering communities for years.
In total the UK has approximately 9,000 onshore wind turbines, Octopus said.
By increasing the green generation capacity of around a tenth of these, there’s potential to power hundreds of thousands more homes with new cheap, green energy, and drive down energy bills for more people.
