North Hoyle Offshore Wind Farm

North Hoyle Offshore Wind Farm Fund

North Hoyle wind farm is the first commercial offshore wind farm in the UK. North Hoyle is fully owned by Greencoat UK Wind. The windfarm was fully commissioned in 2004 and it has supported the local community since the start of operations via its dedicated community funds.

The original community fund obligation of 20 years expired in 2024 but the board of directors agreed to voluntarily continue its support to the local community until the wind farm is decommissioned.

In 2024, the contribution of North Hoyle to the community fund was £126,000 and the commitment of North Hoyle is to increase this contribution in accordance to inflation to ensure the community remains supported through the life of the project.

The community fund serves the areas of Rhyl, Prestatyn and Meliden
