Bridgend Electric Community Transport

Juno has undertaken a feasibility and scoping for a renewable energy power community electric vehicle project in rural Bridgend.

The project aims to develop a sustainable business case for a renewable energy powered community transport service to serve the rural wards around Porthcawl and linking to the new Health Centre in Newton.

It aims to mitigate the impact of the proposed reductions in public transport funding on vulnerable people in the rural areas and also to maximise the use of renewable energy produced at Cenin Renewables Stormy Down where an existing charging point is located.

When operational, the scheme will support the local community, contribute to renewable energy targets and help raise awareness on climate change, energy use and energy efficiency amongst local residents
