Partner with Us to Unlock the Potential of Your Land!
If you’re considering hosting a renewable energy project, Gridsource offers a clear, low-risk opportunity to generate long-term income from your land. We partner with landowners across the UK to deliver solar, wind, battery storage, hybrid systems, and supporting energy infrastructure—covering all costs and managing every stage, from feasibility and planning through to construction and operation.
✅ Key Benefits
- Diversified Income
Secure a long-term, index-linked income stream through a lease agreement—typically over 30 to 40 years—with minimal disruption to your land use. - Multi-Technology Approach
Unlike many developers, we assess your land for a range of technologies including solar, wind, and energy storage—ensuring the best fit for your site and the surrounding grid. - Low Impact, Dual Use
In many cases, land can still be used for grazing or other low-intensity activities alongside renewable infrastructure. - No Upfront Costs
We cover all development, planning, and construction costs—including reasonable legal and agent fees. - Option Fees & Competitive Rent
Receive an upfront option fee during the development phase, followed by regular, inflation-linked rental payments once the project is operational.
📍 Land Requirements
- Solar Projects
100-250 acres of flat, well screened land (Grade 3b or lower), ideally outside AONB’s and National Parks. - Wind Energy Projects
1-250+ acres, for single WTG and to utility scale projects, depending on turbine size and spacing. - Energy Storage Projects
0.1-5 acres, including brownfield or underutilised land. - Hybrid Projects
5-100 acres, depending on the combination of technologies, sites with strong solar radiance & wind speed ideal. - Grid Access
Proximity to substations or overhead lines is key. We conduct a grid feasibility assessment early in the process.
