Hydro-electricity
Project
ECOE is investigating the possibility of a community-owned hydro electricity project at Trews Weir and have met with Exeter City Council (ECC) to discuss it. ECOE may have to bid against commercial companies in order to pursue the project, although this has not been definitely decided yet.
Your support might be able to influence ECC’s decision. Please write or email your ECC councillor asking them to contact The Deputy Chief Exec: Mark Parkinson (who deals with Energy) and ask him to take into consideration the additional social benefit which would be provided if the contract for Trews Weir goes to ECOE and factor this into their evaluation of any tenders. Otherwise, there is a danger that this decision will purely be made on cost grounds and the social impact and value of the community dimension will be overlooked.
