This week the Maidstone branch of the Green Party have came out in support of the Castle Farm Community Turbine.

Stuart Jeffery, Maidstone Green Party: “We welcome this application, this type of locally owned renewable power generation is exactly what we should be doing across the country.

“The country is facing an energy crisis and while the government continues to back damaging and unsustainable fossil fuel sources, it is great to see ideas such as the Castle Farm turbine being proposed. Dist Gen and Castle Farm should be congratulated for their forward thinking.
