This week we welcome John Fairlie, Managing Director of AW Renewables (part of AW Group), who shares his journey in revolutionising renewable energy. John discusses his pioneering "wind-to-wheel" project at Checkley Wood—the first site directly connecting wind turbines to EV charging stations, offering power at just 39p/kWh! With 20% of the UK's onshore wind development under his belt, John explains how renewable energy communities can be built around single turbines, powering thousands of homes while reducing grid dependency. His vision of integrated clean energy communities represents a return to localised power generation, but with a sustainable twist. A fascinating look at where renewables and EVs perfectly intersect.
