Bristan Group, a major manufacturer of kitchen and bathroom products, has successfully installed 1,666 solar panels at its head office in Tamworth, Staffordshire.
In a letter to the Environmental Audit Committee (EAC), the UK Government confirmed it is consulting on changing VAT on energy saving materials that enhance a household’s capacity to use solar energy.
An independent review commissioned by CPRE has found that installing solar panels on existing rooftops and other land such as car parks would provide at least 40-50GW of clean energy in England by 2035.
Solarsense has reported a 400% increase in the number of commercial enquiries it has had for solar installations from the manufacturing sector in 2022.
Solar design software Easy PV, developed by solar wholesaler Midsummer, will now allow users to construct 3D models of their residential and commercial buildings.
PowerMarket have released the results of a study that indicates that if the UK used 5% of available UK commercial rooftop space for solar, it could lead to an estimated £12.6 billion per year in energy cost savings.
