Co-operative Financial Documents and AGM Minutes

In the 12 months to the end of June 2020 our solar panels generated over 500 megawatt hours of electricity, our second highest total in this 12-month period since we started. To put this into context this is equivalent to the electricity consumption of about 172 households which are not on the Economy 7 tariff. Average household electricity consumption has been gradually dropping since the co-operative started trading, increasing the number of households our generation supports.
