Welcome to the Furness Wind Farm website
With growing concerns over the supply of gas and electricity, and with fears over climate change, millions of people in Britain and throughout the world are increasingly turning to renewable energy as their major source of power. Cumbria is right at the forefront of this and Infinergy is proud to work in partnership with the people of Cumbria to deliver locally-farmed renewable energy supplies to the county.
Cumbria is rich in renewable energy and the Furness Wind Farm site near Barrow-in-Furness is no exception, with huge potential as a renewable energy farm. The farm is only in its infancy at present, with a new temporary, Council-approved testing mast the only feature, but the farm’s success could supply dependable local energy to over 10,000 households annually.
Infinergy, an experienced renewable energy company, has been given the task of making the farm a reality. Infinergy is now actively consulting with the local community to ensure that local interests are respected and protected. We are also consulting organisations such as Natural England and English Heritage to ensure that any development does not detract from the outstanding natural beauty of the area.
