SolarTech hits 6000 mark in renewable energy installations

SolarTech Ltd is an independent business, specialising in multi technology renewables to include in house design, supply and installations of photovoltaic, solar thermal, air and ground heat pumps and wind turbine technologies all by direct employed engineers.

Established in 2003, SolarTech has unrivalled experience in the renewable energy sector with a multi-technical approach. Its professional team has a proven track record in renewables, with now over 6000 successful installations throughout the UK.

The company’s success is founded on its ability to work closely with clients to provide cost effective solutions and offer a fully comprehensive service, to include: system design; advice on achieving building regulations with renewables; up to date information on government grants available; health and safety compliance; project management; ‘whole life’ cost analysis; after sales maintenance support.

SolarTech offers multi-technical expertise and flexibility to ensure an efficient service that is delivered within the client’s timeframe. The company has the capability to deal with the demands of large one-off projects such as schools and multi-phase projects such as new housing developments as well as individual one off domestic retrofits
SolarTech was one of the original government framework supplier for Low Carbon Building Programme Phase I, II(e) schemes and now a five year PRO 5 government framework supplier.

With ‘in house’ knowledge of the code for sustainable homes it has successfully delivered projects for clients to enable them to achieve all levels of the code for sustainable homes with renewables. It has also designed and installed renewables for the first multi-occupancy CSH level 6 project in the UK at Mendip Road, Chelmsford for Flagship HA.

The company stands out from its competitors right across the board, says Sales Director, John Adorno. “We have been trading specifically in renewables for now approaching ten years compared to many of our competitors who are recent start-ups and bolt-on businesses,” he says.

“We do not subcontract SolarTech believe in extensive training of our own staff and are part of the ‘investors in people’ framework as well as running our own apprentice schemes. By using in house staff we have full control of every project undertaken from initial design to full install and commissioning”
