Harborough Energy Limited was a social enterprise originally set up as a cooperative which then created Harborough Solar One Limited. Both had a specific charter aim to deliver benefits to the local community in and around Market Harborough as well as reasonable returns to investors in its renewable energy projects. Both organisations are run by volunteers run who do not gain from any profits generated. Directors are appointed for their expertise and support as recorded in our meeting minutes.
Note: In order to simplify the structure, reduce costs and reflect changes in directors, Harborough Energy is in the process of closing down as a limited company – the vision and push towards increased community owned energy will continue through Harborough Solar One!
The
board meets every couple of months to a set agenda, as well as holding our more formal Annual General Meetings. The minutes of the meetings and more information on our roles and structure can be accessed
