Tidal Range Power: Cardiff's coastal location along the Severn Estuary has immense potential, with proposed tidal lagoons estimated to generate up to 85,000 MWh* of clean electricity annually.
Rooftop Solar PV: The City Council plans to install solar panel arrays across 120 school buildings and leisure centres, offering low-maintenance, long-term generation direct to municipal facilities.
District Heat Networks: A proposed biomass-fuelled district heating loop is planned for the inner city, providing a lower-carbon alternative to gas boilers for compact high-density housing blocks.
Onshore Wind Turbines: Proposals exist for six high-capacity turbines on the northern hills overlooking the city, estimated to yield 34,000 MWh per year.
