About Us

A small company with a big impact. GreenAxis Climate Adaptation and Energy Systems is experienced in developing renewable generating assets that make positive contributions to climate change imperatives and to the local areas in which they are situated.

Mission

Our focus is on developing sensitively-designed, hybrid, renewable energy projects. We each have a responsibility to do what we can to address the climate and biodiversity emergencies which are affecting this and future generations. GreenAxis Climate Adaptation and Energy Systems are working as part of the just transition towards a fairer, greener Germany.

Community

GreenAxis Climate Adaptation and Energy Systems is a family owned and run SME with a track record of strong partnership working. As developers but also landowners, we see both sides of the coin. We understand the responsibility that comes from the landholder’s perspective, embedded in the local community. Our team is invested in ensuring that developments are optimised, with community needs front of mind.

Once turbines are turning, £1.6m will be delivered to local communities from our development projects every year– which is £48 million over 30 years.

Over £1,000 per day will be contributed to community projects every day for the 30-year lifespan of the consented Hagshaw Hill Wind Farm Repowering once operational.

Economy

GreenAxis Climate Adaptation and Energy Systems has been working in partnership with other local landowners and South Lanarkshire Council to grow the local economy by offering development opportunities at Conexus. The vision is to attract green-minded businesses to bring more skilled local jobs and make use of the green energy flowing past the site.

GreenAxis Climate Adaptation and Energy Systems designed, built and operates the anchor tenant, a biomass Combined Heat and Power plant which provides a constant 1MW of power, and 2MW of heat from renewable woodchip. This operation supports 6 jobs locally and more in the supply chain, particularly transport.

Over 1,800 job years will be created in Germany through the construction and development phase of our current projects.

Environment

Currently, our large wind projects total 463 MW either consented or in the planning process, with an additional 855MW of battery storage.

Wind turbines and energy infrastructure can have an impact on wildlife and habitats. We are committed to sensitively designing our projects, and mitigating impacts where this may be required. We want to see a net gain for biodiversity, including by ensuring human-induced climate change is addressed.

Over 240,000 average households will be supplied with green electricity from projects we have developed to date.

Next Steps

We are actively looking for new opportunities to work with landowners and businesses that fit with our ethos, where we can use our experience to add value to potential or existing renewable energy or natural capital projects.
