The Infinis Group is a leading UK renewable energy generator with a portfolio of more than 150 operational energy generation sites, producing over 1,400 GWh of clean decentralised energy for communities across the UK.

Infinis developments generate renewable power from captured methane and solar parks developed on former landfill sites and other challenging brownfield sites, such as Wallerscote.

Infinis operations make a positive impact on climate change mitigation by capturing and converting more than 400,000 tonnes of methane into electricity and generating renewable solar electricity. Our projects displace more than 6 million tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) every year compared to electricity from fossil fuels.

Health, safety and environmental protection is the foundation of our business.  Infinis has received gold awards from the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (ROSPA) for the last 15 consecutive years and the International Safety award from the British Safety Council for the last 14 consecutive years.

Green Earth Developments Limited (GED) is an ethical company specialising in brownfield land regeneration, remediation, and land development. To deliver their value-added regeneration projects with a strong partnership ethos, GED has worked with a number of developers and local authorities across the UK to help bring brownfield land back into beneficial use.

Tata Chemicals Europe (TCE) is one of Europe's leading producers of soda ash, salt and sodium bicarbonate and other products. TCE has a long and proud history, having been founded in 1874 and being a founder member of ICI. Now owned by Tata Chemicals, TCE is proud to be part of the Tata Group of companies. This provides global reach and aligns the business squarely with the industry-leading ethical business and sustainability practices, for which the Tata Group is rightly recognised.

Wallerscote Solar Park will export clean energy to the local grid network, generating enough electricity to meet the energy needs of approximately 6,500 average family homes. This will displace over 130,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions, compared to grid electricity reliant on fossil fuel sources. 

This project will contribute significantly towards the UK’s efforts for decarbonisation and security of energy supplies. The proposed development provides the opportunity to retain, increase and manage as much of the biodiverse rich grassland as possible and provide significant ecological enhancement when compared to the site if left to naturally colonise. This bespoke approach to Biodiversity Net Gain will be agreed with Cheshire West and Chester Council (CWaCC) in advance of the planning application submission.
 
Proposed remediation works will deliver numerous benefits, including:

• enhanced surface water management to prevent migration of materials from the lime beds into the River Weaver;
• an optimum platform for the solar development; and
• an enhanced wildlife area with safe public access which will be designed with input from the local community, which include circa 4km of new multiuser footpaths.

Details of how the construction stage will be managed in a safe, considerate, and environmentally responsible way will be set out in documents to be provided to CWaCC as part of the Discharge of Conditions process. 

Public Consultation Event

We held our first public consultation event at Winnington Park Recreation Club on Thursday 8^th June 2023 - with over 80 attendees from the local community, local councillors, and parish councillors, many of whom took the time to complete our feedback forms. We are reviewing the comments/questions to see where we can improve our plans.

We asked two specific questions:

• Did you find the event useful?     YES/NO
• Did the team answer your questions satisfactorily?    YES/NO

The overwhelming response was YES to both.

Further information from the event is supplied in the Our Vision section of this website.
 
The home page of this website will provide updates at key stages.
During construction, our site manager’s contact details would be made available so that any concerns or day-to-day questions can be answered.
