At the end of May 2022 Solar Panels donated as part of our Community Benefit have reached over 100,000kWh – saving 50 tonnes of Co2 emissions.

Solar panels added to turbine house roof in April – saving more Co2

March 2022 – Hydro has saved 1,725 tons of Co2 so far . . . .and produced 3,000,000 kWh power.

November output about average at 45,000kWh.

Lowest 29,000kwh 2018 Highest 60,000kwh 2019

October information

a. AGM held and Dividend of 3% agreed. Will try to upload Minutes when approved. b. Output of 39,000kWh - lowest was 2015 at 13,000 - highest was 2019 at 64,000. c. Volunteers required to help with screen cleaning at plant during leaf fall.

September 2021 lowest generation in 7 years of production.

However - lowest ever was July 2018 with only 3,000 kWh. Please also note - Four schools in the area have had solar panels fitted, paid for by the Whalley Hydro Community Benefit Fund. Together they produced 5,570kWh of power during last month.

Another dry April with low generation.

This is the third dry April in a row with less than 9,000 kW generated. April 2016 saw over 42,000kW!

Solar PV systems output

WCHL have installed Solar pv systems on 4 Primary Schools in the area as part of their Community Benefit work - to date they have generated over 48,000 kilowatt hours of power and saved over 48,000 kg of Co2 equivalent to planting more than 130 trees!

Bottom bearing replaced and production restarted.
