Park Electricity is the electricity provider to the Park. Like other Park infrastructure services, the ‘private estate’ status means that we are responsible for the local distribution network and - in this case - the national grid's responsibility ends at the Earthship.

PSL own and operate the electrical system in the Park, that delivers electricity to customers and maintains the infrastructure. PSL purchases electricity solely from the Findhorn Wind Park, which itself owns and generates electricity via the three wind turbines located to the east of the Park and a number of PV panels located in East Whins.

Overview

UK regulations and standards: Park Electricity, as a supplier/distributor is regulated and governed by OFGEM (the UK’s electricity and gas regulator); and the Electricity Safety, Quality and Continuity Regulations (ESQCR) and the IEE Wiring Regulations.

The electrical distribution network in The Park has developed over the years to meet the needs of existing users and to accommodate new clients. PSL are focused on the challenges of meeting the demands of a growing ecovillage and the tight regulations governing the standards of supply networks, primarily to enhance safety but also to provide a reliable source of electricity within defined tolerances.

In addition, the load demanded by existing occupiers has generally increased, reflecting the greater use of electrical appliances in the home and in business.
