There are 12 suppliers in the UK that are technically insolvent and therefore at risk of collapse, according to analysis from accountants Price Bailey. It looked at the credit risk scores and balance sheet information of the 22 remaining suppliers – with the analysis excluding the big six and two businesses with suppressed risk
The ‘use it or lose it’ rule means that Lufthansa is using its routes even when it hasn’t sold seats. The airline company Lufthansa will operate 18,000 “empty, unnecessary” flights this winter that would have otherwise been cancelled due to lack of passengers. The empty flights will run because of rules imposed by the
We recently did a solar and battery install very local to us - this was in Hemel Hempstead and we're based in Kings Langley. The solar was a large array of 24 panels, each 375W giving a total power of 9 kWp, connected to a Sofar 7.5 kW solar inverter. We handled the necessary
A recent install in Enfield gives us a good opportunity to show off the capability of our drone! Not only can we do accurate surveys ahead of an install, including close-ups on the condition of the roof, but we can follow up after an install to check everything looks good. Drone image of
We did an install in Hounslow earlier this month and here are a few pictures. This system has just 6 panels on a house roof with concrete tiles, but they are each high power (357W) so overall the system will generate a good supply for the property. One of our solar installs in
In this, my last blog about the Fully Charged Show, I'm going to put a spotlight on some of the interesting EVs there that weren't cars. Naturally there were many eBikes on display, alongside a test track available for visitors to test ride them. Some of the eBikes on show at Fully Charged,

Here are some photo's of a recent install near Colchester. It's on a slate roof and slate can be tricky if it's old - great care has to be taken to avoid damage to tiles. We use a system where the panels are fixed through the slates so they don't have to be lifted or
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s report was a “Code Red” for human-driven global warming. The world has never been more aware of the dangers of climate change and the need to switch to green energy sources. One of the building blocks of a green energy future, is the often-undiscussed energy storage capacity. This element
