Renewable Energy Investment Decision Minutes: IE.3/19 Members were presented with an exempt report that sought approval of expenditure of up to £40,000 to carry out financial, legal and technical due diligence on the business case for Investment in a Solar Farm, to be funded from the Innovation Fund (Invest to Earn) Earmarked Reserve.
The Head of Assets updated Members with an overview of the recent changes to the Commercial Strategy to reflect renewable energy opportunities from the Climate Change agenda. The opportunity that was the subject of the presented report was a proposition for discussion that met the brief.
He outlined the business case in more detail, and the s151 officer added further detail on the financial aspects.
The Chairman thanked the officers for their comprehensive overview. The officers then responded to a number of questions of clarity from Committee Members and other Members in attendance.
It was then:
RESOLVED
That expenditure of up to £40,000 (WDBC share) to carry out financial, legal and technical due diligence on the business case for Investment in a Solar Farm, to be funded from the Innovation Fund (Invest to Earn) Earmarked Reserve, be approved.
