Solar panels at Trimpley Reservoir
The construction of Trimpley Reservoir started in 1964 and was completed in 1968. The top reservoir provides water to the Elan Valley Aqueduct which in turn supplies water to Birmingham, Mamble and Tenbury. The water is pumped from the nearby River Severn.
The perimeter of the reservoir is 29 acres, it is about 3ft deep, increasing to 40ft in depth by the valve tower. The reservoir is owned by Severn Trent Water, who also installed the solar panels.
