Comment from Aaron Olver, Technical Director
"We’re extremely pleased with how smoothly the installation of the Leicester Police solar PV farm progressed.
The project was delivered on time despite some design challenges at the beginning of the scheme along with DNO connection restraints, of which we overcame.
The installation was executed to a high standard of quality and safety from our in-house PV installers and electrical team
This installation marks a major milestone in our journey to design and develop solar farms for various customers across the UK who are already seeing a notable drop in their energy bills and the financial economic benefits."
