ABOUT USPower to prosper- Renewable energy will give Wales the power to prosper. In our nation, people and nature will work together for a brighter, cleaner future.
Trydan Gwyrdd Cymru’s mission is to unlock the renewable energy potential of Wales, and deliver benefits to our society, our environment and our economy, for everyone living and working in Wales today and for future generations.
We will do this through delivery excellence, responsible leadership and proactive collaboration.
Trydan Gwyrdd Cymru is fully owned by the Welsh Government.
Our Aims
Trydan Gwyrdd Cymru’s remit from Welsh Government, is to develop and deliver renewable energy projects, starting on the Welsh public estate, with the best possible long-term economic and social benefits for the people of Wales.
Trydan Gwyrdd Cymru’s goals are to:
- develop a minimum of 250MW of new renewable energy generation capacity by 2030 and an additional 750MW of new capacity by 2040, subject to grid capacity being available.
- be an exemplar developer, working with the wider industry and communities.
- advise and work with the public sector, to realise locally owned renewable energy generation.
Our Work
We are assessing where best to develop renewable energy projects, sustainably, with our focus on and around the Welsh Government Woodland Estate. Better, more sustainable development means delivering the most positive effects for people, nature and planet, over the long term. The work starts by looking at data from multiple sources, often gathered over many years, describing natural, environmental and socio-economic characteristics. If an area looks promising, we’ll also undertake bespoke local surveys.
Why Trydan Gwyrdd Cymru?
There are already many developers operating in Wales, the UK and globally. Will Trydan Gwyrdd Cymru make a difference? All renewable energy developers can help address the impacts of climate change, contribute to the energy transition, and over the long term, help to bring down the cost of energy for bill payers. Trydan Gwyrdd Cymru is the only larger-scale onshore wind developer wholly owned by the people of Wales with a singular focus on delivering for Wales
Involving you
Local communities and stakeholders are key to shaping Trydan Gwyrdd Cymru's plans. We'll come to you for your local knowledge. We're also interested in your ideas on the benefits the projects can deliver, locally, and more broadly, for Welsh citizens.
