What was involved

Enviromena acquired the Steeraway solar project near Telford, Shropshire in June 2025 from Luxembourg-based RE Infrastructure Opportunities Holding Sàrl. The acquisition was handled by Enviromena’s experienced in-house legal team over a 7-month period.

Once constructed the project is forecasted to generate 41,370MWh per annum and that will save more than 7,200 tonnes of CO2 per annum.

In addition to the production of green energy the project will deliver meaningful environmental benefits through enhanced landscaping, biodiversity improvements and the continuation of agricultural grazing, ensuring the solar farm supports local wildlife and integrates sensitively with the surrounding countryside.

Contract for Difference

Steeraway is a ready-to-build project which was awarded a government-backed Contract for Difference (CfD) in allocation round 6, which provides an indexed-linked revenue stream for 15 years, and crucially protects the forecast grid connection date from the ongoing grid reforms.

Construction

Construction is due to commence in late 2025 and energisation is forecasted to take place in Q3 2026.

Management of the site

Enviromena will own and operate the site utilising the expertise of our in-house O&M and asset management teams. This includes the team carrying out performance monitoring, security monitoring, preventative / reactive maintenance, landscape management all while ensuring safety is maintained.
