Qwest Energy was founded by the council in partnership with Qwest Services and ENGIE. The provider acquires 100% of its electricity from wind and solar sources. A comprehensive energy package includes heating gas from organic fuel sources. An estimated £120,000 per year in profits are reinvested into discounted tariffs and energy retrofits for low-income customers. Qwest Energy and the council's use of solar energy for public buildings work toward a net-zero emission goal in 2030.
