Support North Walsham Wind Power!

Unity Wind is a local co-operative with the aim to produce renewable energy while raising money for good causes in the community.

It is open for local people to become shareholders and control how the profits are used.

We are hoping to build a single wind turbine in a field off the Cromer Road, on the outskirts of North Walsham. This project was started several years ago by local people, with positive feedback from the early public consultation.

Many professional surveys have been carried out, and they show that it will meet the proper requirements for noise, shadow flicker, wildlife, visual impact and that there should be no detrimental impact on the town; eg, noise, ecology, shadow flicker, visual. The wind turbine has been chosen to be as quiet and efficient as possible.

The North Walsham Wind Turbine will:

• Produce power for least 1,000 homes
• Help the environment by producing clean, sustainable energy
• Help raise £10,000 per year for local good causes in and around North Walsham
• Provide a return for investors

We need your support for the planning application!

1. Please vote in favour of the planning application as soon as possible.

The nearest Enercon turbine is at Martham if you want to look and listen, but bear in mind that this is an older design. See the Enercon site for more info on our proposed E-82 turbine.

You can also show your support by joining (investing) for as little as £1.

Before we have planning consent, do not invest more than you can afford to lose! Once we have planning consent we will launch another appeal for shareholders/members to raise money for the turbines.
