Addressing climate change
Drakes Renewables was contracted by the main contractor to install a 75 kWp solar PV system at Woodmansterne Secondary School as part of a new-build project for London Borough of Lambeth. The installation featured a Van der Valk ballasted mounting system, designed to securely fit the flat roof without the need for penetrations. Our team worked closely with the main contractor to ensure seamless integration with the construction schedule while adhering to structural load requirements and safety regulations.
