Addressing climate change
Baddow Park Offices, a refurbished farm building transformed into modern office space, commissioned Drakes Renewables to install a solar PV system to reduce operational costs. Excess energy generated now supports the adjacent industrial units, maximising efficiency and sustainability.
Drakes Renewables provided an exceptional solar installation for Baddow Park Offices. Their team was professional, efficient and worked seamlessly with our refurbishment schedule. The system has significantly reduced our running costs, and the excess energy now benefits the neighbouring industrial units. Due to the high electricity prices at the time, the payback period was less than 2 years, which has made the investment even more worthwhile. We’re extremely pleased with the results and would highly recommend Drakes.
