About Elgin Energy

Elgin Energy is an international and independent solar development platform committed to a zero carbon future. Established in 2009, the company has extensive experience in delivering solar projects from initial landowner engagement to project completion. Elgin Energy boasts a 98% success rate in obtaining planning permission, with only one project failing to achieve this milestone. As of 2021, the company has successfully delivered 230MW of solar energy across 21 projects in the UK, providing clean energy to approximately 75,000 homes annually. The company has also secured planning permission for 800MW across more than 60 projects and has an additional 3GW of projects in late stages of development across the UK, Ireland, and Australia.

Elgin Energy primarily serves landowners, investors, and communities looking to transition to renewable energy sources. Operating in the renewable energy market, the company generates revenue through the development and sale of solar energy projects. Their business model involves identifying suitable land, securing planning permissions, and developing solar farms, which are then sold to investors or energy companies.
