Thrive Renewables

Thrive Renewables Plc has been working towards a clean energy system in the UK for nearly 30 years. It manages £96 million of assets including onshore wind, commercial rooftop solar, battery storage and small hydro and has helped fund the UK’s first deep geothermal electricity generation project, currently in development.

Over 5,900 investors have supported Thrive in its work towards the transition to a clean, low-carbon energy system. Having consistently delivered new renewable energy capacity through a period of momentous change, Thrive is now targeting to scale up to build more solar, battery storage, wind and geothermal resource. The UK needs a fourfold increase in electricity capacity to meet its net zero target.

“ Thrive was established to enable individuals to benefit from investing directly in sustainable energy projects and increase UK renewable capacity in a way that brings people together. Nearly 30 years on, our mission is more urgent and relevant than ever.

We are now targeting significant growth again as the UK transforms to a zero-carbon energy system, supporting government targets and the environmental imperative to fully decarbonise the electricity system by 2035.”


Matthew Clayton, Managing Director – Thrive Renewables Plc
