About Us
Welcome to the Clocaenog Forest Wind Farm Fund!
A long-term investment of £19 million, over the lifetime of the wind farm, the Clocaenog Forest Wind Farm Fund is supporting communities within the rural area of Conwy and Denbighshire to accomplish amazing things.
Clocaenog Forest Wind Farm
Clocaenog Forest Wind Farm is an onshore wind farm project owned by RWE. It is built on land leased from the Welsh Government that is managed by Natural Resources Wales.
The 96MW project, near Denbigh has 27 wind turbines in the forest and has the capacity to produce electric for approximately 63,800 UK per year1.
1 Energy predicted to be generated by the proposal is derived using wind speeds monitored in the local area and correlating to longer term historical weather data using meteorological models seeded with data obtained from satellite, surface-based and airborne measurement systems. The calculations are based on an installed capacity of 96MW. Equivalent homes supplied is based on an annual electricity consumption per home of 4100 kWh. This figure is supported by recent domestic electricity consumption data available from The Digest of UK Energy Statistics and household figures from the UK National Statistics Authority.

About the panel
All decisions on the allocation of funding are made by a panel of local volunteers who live, work or volunteer in the area of benefit for the fund.
Panel members usually meet four times a year to consider applications.
Each has knowledge, experience and an empathy for the third sector and the challenges facing community groups and organisations. To ensure a “joined up” approach to projects and regional initiatives we have a representative from the two Local Authorities (Conwy and Denbighshire) and Cadwyn Clwyd, together with respected and motivated individuals with a lifetime of voluntary sector skills and practical experience.
