The Nest pension scheme has confirmed the purchase of a multi-million-pound solar farm through its partnership with Octopus Renewables, and now a total of nearly 10 million Nest members, a third of the UK workforce, are investors in the solar farm.

The investment into the Reading solar farm represents one of the largest deals by Nest into green UK renewable energy. Nest’s membership should benefit from the strong investment returns the solar farm is expected to produce for decades to come, under the management of Octopus Renewables.
