London’s Tower Bridge among iconic landmarks to be powered by new Dorset solar farm

The City Corporation has been sourcing 100 percent of its energy from renewable sources, via existing infrastructure, since 2018.

However, they said, the so-called Power Purchase Agreement is the first of its kind in the UK to be signed directly between a renewable energy provider and a governing authority.

As a major London public services provider, the Corporation runs schools, social housing, open spaces and wholesale markets across the capital.

All of these, the City Corporation explained, will receive renewably-sourced electricity from the South Farm solar site.
