Addressing climate change
Drakes Renewables were engaged by the Hertfordshire NHS Trust to install solar systems across 9 sites in Hertfordshire, delivering the project in two phases. The installations were completed within a tight timeframe to meet the Trust’s annual budget cut-off dates.
Each installation was meticulously planned to minimise disruption to the hospitals’ daily operations, with special attention given to final connections and shutdowns. Drakes’ team ensured that all work was completed safely and efficiently, helping to reduce energy costs while supporting the NHS Trust’s sustainability objectives.
