Addressing climate change
Royde & Tucker Ltd, established in 1924 and based in Hitchin, Hertfordshire, is a leading manufacturer and supplier of precision-engineered architectural hardware, specialising in high-quality hinges and related products.
To support their commitment to sustainability and reduce operational energy costs, Drakes Renewables installed a 70kWp solar PV system as an extension to their existing solar setup. This custom installation enhances Royde & Tucker’s energy efficiency and furthers their efforts in lowering their carbon footprint.
We selected Drakes Renewables to install a 70kWp extension to our existing PV installation. The project was subject to obtaining a grant which added an extra layer of complication to the process. The quality of service we received from Ben and Luke from initial enquiry, specification, tender and eventual installation was thoroughly professional, competent and excellent throughout and I would have no hesitation in recommending Drakes Renewables.
