Trydan's itinerary over the summer
Trydan will be attending a number of events across Wales over the summer. We will be in the Science and Technology village and the Societies tent in the National Eisteddfod.
Of the numerous events taking place in areas around our proposed projects sites, Trydan is looking forward to attending:
- Maerdy Community Centre, and Ferndale near the Carreg Wen Wind Farm site
- Nantglyn, Denbigh, Cyffylliog and Llansannan near the Clocaenog Dau Wind Farm site
- Llandeilo and Llanfydaelog near the Glyn Cothi Wind Farm site
Our social media platforms are the best way to find more details on our summer activites - follow our Instagram here, and our LinkedIn here.
Our Mission
Trydan Gwyrdd Cymru’s mission is to unlock the renewable energy potential of Wales, and deliver benefits to our society, our environment and our economy, for everyone living and working in Wales today and for future generations.
We will do this through delivery excellence, responsible leadership and proactive collaboration.
Trydan Gwyrdd Cymru is fully owned by the Welsh Government https://www.gov.wales/
Our Aims
Trydan Gwyrdd Cymru’s remit from Welsh Government, is to develop and deliver renewable energy projects, starting on the Welsh public estate, with the best possible long-term economic and social benefits for the people of Wales.
Trydan Gwyrdd Cymru’s goals are to:
- develop 1 GW (1000 MW) of new renewable energy generation capacity by 2040.
- be an exemplar developer, working with the wider industry and communities.
- advise and work with the public sector, to realise locally owned renewable energy generation.
Why do we need large, utility scale clean energy projects?
Aren’t solar panels on buildings enough? What are the advantages of developments in the Welsh Government Woodland Estate? Watch this short animation for some answers.

Find out about our work
With an initial focus on the Welsh Government Woodland Estate, we assess where best to develop sustainable renewable energy projects. Better, more sustainable development means delivering the most positive effects for people, nature and planet, over the long term.

What we do
Why Trydan Gwyrdd Cymru?
There are already many developers operating in Wales, the UK and globally. Will Trydan Gwyrdd Cymru make a difference? All renewable energy developers can help address the impacts of climate change, contribute to the energy transition, and over the long term, help to bring down the cost of energy for bill payers. Trydan Gwyrdd Cymru is the only larger-scale onshore wind developer wholly owned by the people of Wales with a singular focus on delivering for Wales. Meet the team.
Who we are
Can nature and renewable energy infrastructure coexist in harmony?
One of the greatest threats to nature is climate change. Nature is also threatened by local impacts from many different kinds of human activity. Better understanding means better, more sustainable infrastructure development. Choosing where to develop is key. Trydan Gwyrdd Cymru will be part of the drive for more strategic and efficient use of Welsh public land, delivering multiple benefits in each location. Conifer plantation forests provide important resources to society, and the cyclical pattern of felling and replanting opens up space for wind turbines. With new forest management practices, commercial forestry works better with nature, and in partnership, we will be exploring opportunities to deliver biodiversity benefits.
