About R-Gen Renewables
R-Gen Renewables brings together a management team and partners with more than twenty years of developing and financing onshore wind projects in the UK.
With many wind farms in the UK reaching the end of their lives in the next ten years, R-Gen Renewables focus is to work with landowners and project owners to repower these projects with more modern and efficient turbines.
Where we see an opportunity to extend an existing wind farm, R-Gen Renewables will engage directly with landowners and project owners to develop extensions as part of the repowering plan.
Our focus is on mid-size wind farms. Our flexible and dynamic approach combined with proven experience to problem solve and strong financial backing, enables us to develop these projects economically and efficiently.
