Important message from Ripple Energy Dear Helen, I am sorry to inform you that it has been necessary to cause Ripple to cease to trade. The directors have been required to seek the appointment of insolvency practitioners from Begbies Traynor as administrators. The cooperatives Ripple managed will continue to operate under the direction of their respective boards. It is important to remember that the wind farms and solar parks are owned by the respective cooperatives, not Ripple.

Oh... this is really sad news. Ripple Energy will cease to trade (although their existing turbines etc are owned by separate co-ops and will continue to function).

Shared green energy ownership is such a great idea. I really hope this isn't a major roadblock to more of it.

Letter reads: Dear Chris, I am sorry to inform you that it has been necessary to cause Ripple to cease to trade. The directors have been required to seek the appointment of insolvency practitioners from Begbies Traynor as administrators. The cooperatives Ripple managed will continue to operate under the direction of their respective boards. It is important to remember that the wind farms and solar parks are owned by the respective cooperatives, not Ripple. Generation at Graig Fatha and Kirk Hill wind farms will continue as normal. Operations and maintenance is carried out by third parties, under contract to the wind farms, not Ripple. Derril Water solar park is currently under construction. Construction is led and managed by an experienced third party contractor, they will continue to manage the project’s build on behalf of the cooperative and its members. The administrators are in discussions with the Boards of the cooperatives to try and secure a smooth transition to other parties to manage the projects on behalf of the coops. The administrator will also be in contact with Ripple’s creditors in due course. We will update you further when possible. Sarah Ripple Energy

It ain't easy being green!

Ripple energy have ceased trading.
Community notice boards are blocked.
Seemed like a good idea but obviously poorly executed.
Good luck if you have invested.

Ugh, #RippleEnergy has gone bust. 😩

Such a massive shame, I can only assume it was due to poor management. Now we wait to see what happens with the in-progress projects I guess.
