Please put Energy Advisor in the subject heading. Deadline: 20/12/2023 Interviews: 15/1/2024 About Awel Aman Tawe: Awel Aman Tawe (AAT) is a community energy charity and social enterprise which was set up in 1998. It was created by local people in the Upper Amman and Swansea Valleys, a former coal mining area 20 miles north of Swansea. Our prime drivers are tackling climate change, community resilience, finding creative solutions, retaining wealth and jobs in the Welsh economy and engaging people in the transition to net zero. We have a strong reputation for delivery of education, arts and engagement. We have set up two renewable energy co-ops and are involved in a number of other projects. Surplus from the co-ops' wind and other income has enabled the charity to create 12 FTE jobs (website recently redeveloped) • Awel Co-op, is a 4.7MW community wind farm which was commissioned in Jan 2017. It was funded by a £5.25m loan from Triodos Bank and a £3m community share offer. The annual turnover has been £1.1m and will be rising to £1.8m in 2024. • Egni Co-op develops rooftop solar on schools, businesses and community buildings. It has installed 5 MWp on nearly 100 sites in Wales. Egni has raised £5m from a community share offer and £2.12m from the Development Bank of Wales to fund the installs which are ongoing. The turnover in 2023 is expected to be £1.09m. We saved our sites more than £311k in electricity costs in 2023 and nearly 1,000 tonnes in carbon emissions. We recently won a tender with Pembrokeshire County Council to install solar on 20 schools and 4 leisure centres. • 'Y Bryn' Shared Ownership : we have a 20% stake (£30m) in a 100 MW wind farm near Port Talbot. We are working in partnership with Neath Port Talbot Council for Voluntary Service (NPTCVS) and Bridgend Association of Voluntary Organisations (BAVO). We have a co-op model to deliver both community benefit funds and shared ownership. Y Bryn is being developed by Coriolis/ESB. We signed MOUs in June 2022 and expect the project to go for planning in 2024. • Mynydd Fforch Dwm Shared Ownership : we have a 17% stake in a 20MW wind farm and 6MW of solar near the village of Tonmawr, Neath Port Talbot. We are working in partnership with NPTCVS. We signed MOUs in July 2023 and the project was submitted for planning in Q3 2023. • Hwb y Gors: we are also developing Hwb y Gors, the former village primary school, into a low carbon social enterprise, arts and education venue in the Cwmgors, north of Swansea. It includes a café, arts and education facilities, office accommodation, community gardens, community transport and car club. The site incorporates a SuDS scheme on the former playground, 90kWp of solar, a 50 kW ground source heat pump, chargepoints and battery storage. Work is being funded by £2m of grant, loan and community shares funding from the Lottery, Welsh Government, WCVA, Egni Co-op, Moondance Foundation, Transforming Towns, Garfield Weston, Morel Trust, the Landfill Tax, Awel Aman Tawe and others. A film of the refurbishment can be seen here . The building is due to open to the public in Spring 2024. • Climate Change Education: we employ an Education Officer who works with over 40 schools across South and West Wales to further reduce carbon emissions through arts, music and energy campaign activities. We work in partnership with another charity, Energy Sparks who have a data portal which includes school electricity, gas and solar. On average last year, our work saved £3k per primary school (12.8t/CO2) and £12k (48 t/CO2) per secondary in energy costs . Examples of our work in Pembrokeshire schools can be seen here and an energy rap can be seen here . • Community Transport: we have two electric vehicles and work with vulnerable groups in SW Wales to enable them to access services and support. In particular, we work with people with learning difficulties, disabilities, carers and the elderly. One of the vehicles has a wheelchair ramp. A video of our work with Your Voice Advocacy clients by West Glamorgan Regional Partnership can be seen here . • We are part of a consortium across Wales and are developing a community electric car club in our area. • Affordable Low Carbon Housing: we have two small sites with planning permission which we are looking to take forward in 2024. Over 80 local community organisations and schools are members of Awel and Egni Co-ops, owning more than £100k of shares, gaining a sustainable income stream from the projects. This includes a range of groups such as Merched y Wawr, schools, sports clubs and community centres. We have over 1,500 members of our two renewable energy co-ops. In 2019, Awel Aman Tawe was recognised as Environmental Organisation of the Year in the Social Enterprise UK Awards and Egni won Outstanding Renewable Energy Project in an award sponsored by Welsh Government. Co-founders were Emily Hinshelwood and Dan McCallum who were both recognised by the outgoing Future Generations Commission, Sophie Howe, in her list of 100 Changemakers in Wales.

Deadline: 20/12/2023 Interviews: 15/1/2024 About Awel Aman Tawe: Awel Aman Tawe (AAT) is a community energy charity and social enterprise which was set up in 1998. It was created by local people in the Upper Amman and Swansea Valleys, a former coal mining area 20 miles north of Swansea. Our prime drivers are tackling climate change, community resilience, finding creative solutions, retaining wealth and jobs in the Welsh economy and engaging people in the transition to net zero. We have a strong reputation for delivery of education, arts and engagement. We have set up two renewable energy co-ops and are involved in a number of other projects. Surplus from the co-ops' wind and other income has enabled the charity to create 12 FTE jobs (website recently redeveloped) • Awel Co-op, is a 4.7MW community wind farm which was commissioned in Jan 2017. It was funded by a £5.25m loan from Triodos Bank and a £3m community share offer. The annual turnover has been £1.1m and will be rising to £1.8m in 2024. • Egni Co-op develops rooftop solar on schools, businesses and community buildings. It has installed 5 MWp on nearly 100 sites in Wales. Egni has raised £5m from a community share offer and £2.12m from the Development Bank of Wales to fund the installs which are ongoing. The turnover in 2023 is expected to be £1.09m. We saved our sites more than £311k in electricity costs in 2023 and nearly 1,000 tonnes in carbon emissions. We recently won a tender with Pembrokeshire County Council to install solar on 20 schools and 4 leisure centres. • 'Y Bryn' Shared Ownership : we have a 20% stake (£30m) in a 100 MW wind farm near Port Talbot. We are working in partnership with Neath Port Talbot Council for Voluntary Service (NPTCVS) and Bridgend Association of Voluntary Organisations (BAVO). We have a co-op model to deliver both community benefit funds and shared ownership. Y Bryn is being developed by Coriolis/ESB. We signed MOUs in June 2022 and expect the project to go for planning in 2024. • Mynydd Fforch Dwm Shared Ownership : we have a 17% stake in a 20MW wind farm and 6MW of solar near the village of Tonmawr, Neath Port Talbot. We are working in partnership with NPTCVS. We signed MOUs in July 2023 and the project was submitted for planning in Q3 2023. • Hwb y Gors: we are also developing Hwb y Gors, the former village primary school, into a low carbon social enterprise, arts and education venue in the Cwmgors, north of Swansea. It includes a café, arts and education facilities, office accommodation, community gardens, community transport and car club. The site incorporates a SuDS scheme on the former playground, 90kWp of solar, a 50 kW ground source heat pump, chargepoints and battery storage. Work is being funded by £2m of grant, loan and community shares funding from the Lottery, Welsh Government, WCVA, Egni Co-op, Moondance Foundation, Transforming Towns, Garfield Weston, Morel Trust, the Landfill Tax, Awel Aman Tawe and others. A film of the refurbishment can be seen here . The building is due to open to the public in Spring 2024. • Climate Change Education: we employ an Education Officer who works with over 40 schools across South and West Wales to further reduce carbon emissions through arts, music and energy campaign activities. We work in partnership with another charity, Energy Sparks who have a data portal which includes school electricity, gas and solar. On average last year, our work saved £3k per primary school (12.8t/CO2) and £12k (48 t/CO2) per secondary in energy costs . Examples of our work in Pembrokeshire schools can be seen here and an energy rap can be seen here . • Community Transport: we have two electric vehicles and work with vulnerable groups in SW Wales to enable them to access services and support. In particular, we work with people with learning difficulties, disabilities, carers and the elderly. One of the vehicles has a wheelchair ramp. A video of our work with Your Voice Advocacy clients by West Glamorgan Regional Partnership can be seen here . • We are part of a consortium across Wales and are developing a community electric car club in our area. • Affordable Low Carbon Housing: we have two small sites with planning permission which we are looking to take forward in 2024. Over 80 local community organisations and schools are members of Awel and Egni Co-ops, owning more than £100k of shares, gaining a sustainable income stream from the projects. This includes a range of groups such as Merched y Wawr, schools, sports clubs and community centres. We have over 1,500 members of our two renewable energy co-ops. In 2019, Awel Aman Tawe was recognised as Environmental Organisation of the Year in the Social Enterprise UK Awards and Egni won Outstanding Renewable Energy Project in an award sponsored by Welsh Government. Co-founders were Emily Hinshelwood and Dan McCallum who were both recognised by the outgoing Future Generations Commission, Sophie Howe, in her list of 100 Changemakers in Wales.
