An energy company has agreed a partnership with Shropshire-based Belton Farm.

Conrad Energy, which generates, buys, sells and manages energy, has announced the signing of a 25-year Power Purchase Agreement with Belton Farm, based in Whitchurch.

The farm was one of the first cheesemakers to run a carbon footprint programme both at a business level and with their local farmers and between 2009 and 2021, saw a 48 per cent reduction in total emissions, despite cheese production increasing year on year. Conrad Energy says its customer portal, iON+ Connect has the ability to show the source of the matched energy in any given period.

In April, planning permission was granted for an additional on-site ground mount solar PV scheme which will be developed by Conrad Energy.
