The Ferry Farm Community Solar Project now provides clean energy sufficient to power 1,300 homes.
It is situated at Ferry Farm because the Manhood Peninsula has the best sunshine record in the UK.
This innovative project is expected to produce up to £25,000 every year for a fund to support projects
and initiatives by local community and other groups under the general theme of 'The Environment'.
Selsey Community Forum is proud to administer this fund on behalf of the Ferry Farm
Community Solar Project. For more information, visit the Ferry Farm website.

The 10th Bidding Round is open until 5pm on 31 January 2025 for groups with
environmental projects which must benefit the communities of Selsey and Sidlesham.
