Energy4All and Westmill Wind Farm Co-op are celebrating after being recognized as Highly Commended in the Community Initiative Award category at the prestigious Energy Institute Awards. The award ceremony was held on Wednesday 19th November 2008 at the Sheraton Park Lane Hotel, in London.

Energy4All won for its pioneering work in establishing the Westmill Wind Farm Co-op. Westmill Wind Farm is the first onshore wind farm to be built in the south-east of England which is 100% Community Owned. Over 2300 people own a stake in the Wind Farm in Oxfordshire, which became fully operational in February 2008.

Mark Luntley, Chairman of the Westmill Wind Farm received the recognition in front of an audience of leading figures from the Energy Industry. Mark Luntley, the Westmill Wind Farm Chairman, said Westmill Wind Farm is absolutely delighted at the recognition the project has received; the result of many years of effort on the part of Adam Twine and hundreds of local people, who believe this is a vital contribution to the UKs fight against climate change.
