Renewable energy sources play a key role in the transition towards sustainable and low-carbon economy. According to the Renewable Energy Directive, EU countries shall fulfil at least 32% of their total energy needs with renewables by 2030. The growth of the photovoltaic sector has accelerated dramatically over the last 5 years and electricity from this source has the greatest potential to support achieving renewable target given falling costs, new panel technologies, various subsidies and relative ease of installation. We would like to reach out to our clients and business partners offering professional advisory services in the transition to more decarbonized and sustainable energy supply through specialised technical consultancy and efficient project management services for photovoltaics systems as well as green building certification services.

Photovoltaics. Plug into a Green Future!
More and more owners and occupiers appreciate the vast range of benefits of installing photovoltaics. Photovoltaics technology is associated with modernity and fits perfectly into companies' environmental responsibility strategies in a highly visible way. Nowadays, it may still be considered a novelty, but its easy to imagine that in the next few years most commercial buildings will have Photovoltaics in some form, given the low cost and immediate benefits associated with systems upto 50 KWp. Sustainability systems LEED and BREEAM both reward implementation of Photovoltaics and often such implementation is key to achieving the highest ratings under such systems.
