Relevant technologies
Battery Storage
We provide our clients with battery storage so that they can store energy generated from renewable energy equipment, store off-peak electricity for use during peak times and provide back-up electricity during power failures.
Ground Source Heat Pump
This is where we bury pipework within the ground, which circulates water. The water then absorbs heat from the warmer temperatures below ground and this is then transferred into heating systems.
Air Source Heat Pump
For this system, we provide a pump which extracts heat out of the air, this is then boosted and transferred into the heating system.
Solar Photovoltaic (PV)
Solar Photovoltaic (Solar PV) systems harness the energy from the sun and convert it into useable electricity. For further information see our technical brief.
Solar Thermal
Solar Thermal harnesses the energy from the sun to heat water held within dark panels, this warm water is then transferred to a hot water cylinder for distribution.
Electrical Vehicle (EV) Charging
With the rapid rise in use of electrical vehicles, EV charge points are a requirement for all modern workplaces. There are currently three types of EV charging: rapid (1-2 hours), fast (3-4 hours), and slow (overnight). Government grants are available to subsidise commercial EV stations providing your installer is OZEV-approved. For further information see our technical brief.
