The Energy division began with a vision to power the farm with renewable energy

The vision has since grown and so has the team. We are now looking at how the farm can reduce greenhouse gas emissions without compromising food security and the environment

Lapwing Energy was part of DESNZ’s Greenhouse Gas Removal programme developing Reverse Coal, focused on rethinking farmed landscapes, sequestering carbon and enhancing food production.

This pilot project on The Lapwing Estate in the heart of the historic Midlands coal fields can be scaled to generate in excess of 1Mt of CO2e a year contribution towards net zero.
