Who we are

PictureMORE Renewables Directors
Morecambe Bay Community Renewables, or MORE Renewables for short, is a community benefit society set-up in October 2011 by a group of Lancaster residents.  We have 44 members, 85% of whom live in the Lancaster district.  Members elect the directors. 

Our aims are to: 
  • increase the amount of renewable energy generated in the Morecambe Bay area;
  • provide a socially and environmentally beneficial investment opportunity for local people and organisations;
  • reduce long-term energy costs and carbon emissions for local communities and organisations;
  • provide funding for local community projects which help to reduce energy use and promote sustainable living.

Our Vision

To develop a range of renewable energy installations in the Morecambe Bay area, making use of our local resources such as sun, wind, woodland and fast flowing rivers, to reduce carbon emissions, provide a return to investors and funding to help people reduce their energy use and live more sustainably. 

Energy mentor

In 2014 MORE Renewables was one of the organisation selected as a mentor on the Energy Mentoring scheme run by Co-operatives UK.  We supported six other groups in North West England over the life of the scheme.
