Harnessing the Power of Solar 🌞 What a fantastic day for solar energy! While sunny days are great, did you know that solar panels start generating electricity as soon as there’s daylight? I’m excited to finally have our solar panels installed on both my home and care homes, and I’m genuinely amazed by their performance. With payback periods ranging from just 18 months to 4 years, investing in solar is an absolute no-brainer for any homeowner or business. We currently have a large stock of Recom 430W Bifacial All-Black Panels right here in Essex. Why Recom? -European owned -European designed -Compliant with the European Material Act -Warranties up to 30 years If you’re considering making the switch to solar, drop me a DM for pricing and more information!

The recent collapse of ISG has brought significant attention to the vulnerabilities within the construction industry’s supply chains. In response to this development, Simon Herod, supply chain specialist at digital tending platform E1 (UK / Ireland), offers his perspective on the critical financial and operational challenges that have emerged, and what the industry must focus on moving forward. “The recent collapse of ISG has sent shockwaves through the construction industry, highlighting just how fragile our supply chains can be. With a staggering £180 million in unpaid bills for contractors, it’s clear that as an industry, we need to step up our game when it comes to managing finances and transparency. As claims keep piling up, it’s time to prioritise solid risk assessment and contingency planning to protect our subcontractors and keep our industry on track. Let us use this situation as a wake-up call for businesses to work more collaboratively and stay on top of finances. There’s no denying that technology is moving fast in our sector, there’s no excuse not to invest in financial forecasting tools and project management software that allow for real-time insights across financial health. These tools can seriously boost decision-making and help mitigate risks, ultimately leading to a safer and healthier supply chain.” Read Construction UK Magazine for more similar content🏗️📰

🌿 💡Circular Economy Week – Powerday 🌍♻️ Comment from Patrick Rafferty, Environmental, Sustainability & Compliance Advisor at Powerday: This week is the seventh annual Circular Economy Week in the UK. Set up by ReLondon, the week provides an opportunity for organisations to demonstrate how adopting a circular economy can meet a diverse range of economic, environmental and societal challenges. At Powerday, we believe that initiatives like this are crucial in raising awareness and driving the change needed to safeguard our planet. Striving for a circular economy is not just a goal but a necessity for the health of the environment. We are living through a climate emergency which we fully recognise and appreciate. By rethinking how we produce, consume, and dispose of materials, we can significantly reduce our carbon footprint, limit the strain on natural resources, and foster a more sustainable future for generations to come. Circular Economy Week is all about mobilising organisations and individuals to change their policies and practices to revolutionise our behaviour when it comes to product usage. A truly circular economy supports the principle of 'reduce, reuse, recycle,' which aligns perfectly with Powerday’s mission to recover valuable resources from waste and divert as much as possible from landfill. We are committed to playing our part in creating a world where waste is minimised, and materials are kept in use for longer, helping to create a cleaner, greener planet. Weeks like this are a reminder of the power of collective action, and we’re proud to be part of this important conversation. #Powerday #CircularEconomy #Sustainability #ClimateAction #ReduceReuseRecycle #ZeroWaste #GreenFuture #CollectiveAction #SustainableLiving #EnvironmentalImpact #CircularEconomyWeek #WasteManagement #GreenInnovation #CleanPlanet #ResourceRecovery #Magazine #Construction #Manufacturing #Production #CircularEconomyWeek
