SPECIAL REPORT: ECOBUILD 2011
Photon Energy Stand N1450 O
ne of the UK’s top rated independent renewable energy design and installation
companies, Photon Energy will be exhibiting its range of solar photovoltaic (PV) and solar thermal systems at this year’s Ecobuild show. In addition, the company will officially launch Suntricity™ - a solar PV package designed specifically for electrical installers and self-builders. With the introduction of the feed-in tariff in April last year, renewable energy systems, in particular solar PV, have become increasingly popular for businesses, house-builders, housing associations and public sector organisations. Photon Energy will be at stand N1450 to explain how you can take advantage of the feed-in tariff. Photon Energy specialises in the design, supply, installation and maintenance of solar PV and solar water heating systems as well as wind turbines. The company was established in 2006, and has become one of the UK’s leading independent installers of micro-generation technologies. The company offers a full turnkey design, supply, installation and maintenance package and works on both new-build and retrofit projects. Clients have included some of the
UK’s major house builders such as Willmott Dixon, Hill Partnerships, Persimmon Homes and Leadbitter Homes. The company has also worked for some of the country’s major construction companies such as Volker Fitzpatrick, Kier and Wates Group. Photon Energy has installed renewable energy systems for housing associations, local councils, further education colleges, schools and community centres and NHS Trusts. Photon Energy will also be demonstrating how easy it is to install solar PV with the new Suntricity™ kits, designed so that electrical contractors can offer solar PV to the domestic market and small businesses in the UK. The package comprises a comprehensive design and supply offering available directly from the company or via electrical wholesalers, plus optional help with commissioning. Suntricity™ gives electricians the opportunity to benefit from increased demand from small businesses and householders for solar energy products. For self-builders, Suntricity™ makes installation far easier on technical grounds and provides considerable cost and environmental benefits. Suntricity™ kits are supplied in five standard sizes, with other sizes and configurations available on request. All come complete all the necessary components for quick

and easy installation. Director at Photon
Energy, Jonathan Bates, said: “With the feed-in tariff at its maximum return, paying dividends for the next 25 years, solar PV in particular is a great long- term investment. “We believe our
customer-driven approach ensures that our customers’ needs are met in an efficient and personal way and provides confidence in the services that we offer. As
we are not tied to any particular supplier or technology, our customers can be confident that we will recommend the most appropriate solutions to meet their energy needs. “As we will demonstrate at Ecobuild, the great advantage of Suntricity™ is that it puts solar PV installation within the capabilities of most electrical contractors, whether they are sole traders or sizeable businesses. There is no doubt that solar PV offers considerable opportunities to
electrical installers at present, given the economic and environmental benefits for householders.”
As a certified installer under the
government’s Micro-generation Certification Scheme and an NICEIC approved contractor, Photon Energy is committed to delivering a high quality, value for money service to its clients.
