The experience of investing in Ripple Energy’s cooperative is excellent. The website is really easy to use and explains it all really well. I just wish you had more projects to invest in and had the ability to accelerate the wind farms coming online sooner so we could see the results sooner. Highly recommend 🙌🏻

Hi Laurence - thanks for your review! We can't wait to share more information on the Kirk Hill construction process over the coming months!

All good so far

All good so far. Looking forward to the Kirk Hill production kicking in.

However, I do agree with some others that it is strange to be asked for a review 18 months or so BEFORE we are likely to actually receive anything. Will revisit my review when I get the first payments.

Great idea and arrangement

Ripple Energy is ideal for us as our home is not suitable for solar panels or ground or air source heat pumps . Do we can still feel we are doing something to mitigate our carbon footprint. The arrangements for investing in the project has been straightforward and simple.

So far so good...

All I have done so far is buy shares in the co-op - the scheme has not yet been built, and is not generating electricity or rebates on my electricty use. But the process so far has gone smoothly, and I am confident that all will continue to go well.

Greener better world with a company that cares

besides the project being as interesting as it gets when it comes to renewable energy and our contribution to a better greener world, the communication with ripple is very good, always trying their best to make everything transparent and as clear as possible.

Good thus far

I recently bought shares in a ripple wind farm. The whole process was easy and straight forward. I was kept informed fully throughout the whole process and I bought the allocation I wanted. Every stage of this process ran smoothly without any bother whatsoever, so far the product and service have been very good.
