Great to see... As an EV driver and owner, this is great to see, so well done SSE. Drove past this the other day on my way back North. As an EV driver, I cannot help but notice the, sometimes, huge variation on charge costs, across the country, at public charge points. The lowest I have seen is 31p/Kwh, the highest, 89p/Kwh. Goverments advocate the use of EV,s for obvious reasons. At the higher band rate, it is more or less equivalent to putting petrol in your car. If government want more EV,s on the road, this is not incentivising is it?

Australia 🇦🇺 Steps Up on Sustainability! Great news for Aussie EV drivers! Ampol - AmpCharge just secured another $100 million to roll out 200 new fast-charging stations across the country by 2025! ⚡️🔌 👏 👏 👏 “There are more than 200,000 EVs on our roads, with more and more choice of affordable to buy and run EVs coming into the market” Chris Bowen MP said. “There are now 22 EV models selling for under $60,000 in Australia, up from 14 models in 2022. Giles Parkinson The Driven This exciting development is a major boost for Australia's decarbonisation efforts, making electric vehicle ownership a more viable and attractive option for everyone. Not only will this increase access to convenient charging, but Ampol is also exploring renewable fuels like sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and renewable diesel – a double win for our environment! Let's celebrate this significant step towards a cleaner future for Australia. Here's to more electric vehicles and less carbon pollution!

Recent analysis has found the UK is currently falling far short of the government's target of a zero carbon electricity system by 2030. Indeed, leading forecasting firm Cornwall Insight believes achieving that will be a 'substantial challenge', requiring additional investment worth £48bn and hindered by issues such as 'funding constraints, supply chain problems, limited port capacity and the need to build many more links into the National Grid.' Out-the-box solutions will be required to get there. For example, one idea could be to incentivise councils, corporates and other bodies (who already own large areas of concrete-covered car parks) to install solar panels over the top. Encouraging solar carport installations could have a few benefits: - Makes use of 'brownfield' sites, Meaning less greenbelt and vital farmland is required for solar panels - Win-win for corporates and taxpayers, By reducing corporate carbon emissions, increasing the amount of zero-carbon electricity in the grid and reducing the cost burden for the government of investing in zero-carbon infrastructure. - Encourage the installation of more EV charge points, alongside the carports Indirectly helping EV ownership to increase and taking petrol and diesel cars off the road. Or, the government could go further and mandate the installation of solar carports like France has done. In France, all carparks with 80 spaces or more must cover at least half of their spaces with solar carports within the next three years. The move is expected to add 11 gigawatts of power to the French grid. That's the equivalent of about 10 power stations or enough power for eight million homes. What do you think? Should solar carports installations be incentivised or even mandated in the UK? #solar #renewables #cleanenergy #sustainability Source: https://lnkd.in/eN_UcMzD Visit our website: https://lnkd.in/ecie6x_r

Solar carports and EV charging stations provide an ideal solution for industrial properties that lack adequate rooftop space for their solar project. This approach offers a two-fold benefit for commercial and industrial clients who seek sustainable and cost-effective solutions. 🚗🌱 By utilizing solar energy, these structures provide renewable power and also offer convenient charging infrastructure for electric vehicles. There are several advantages. Firstly, they promote environmental enhancement by reducing carbon emissions and dependence on fossil fuels. Secondly, they offer potential cost savings through reduced electricity bills and tax incentives for renewable energy adoption. 💸 Additionally, solar carports provide shaded parking, protecting vehicles from harsh weather conditions, thus extending their lifespan. Integrating EV charging stations encourages the transition to electric transportation, aligning with corporate sustainability goals and enhancing the company's green image. 🚀 Overall, solar carports with EV charging stations are a win-win solution for businesses aiming to lead the way in sustainability while reaping tangible benefits. #solarservices #carports #EVcharging

🌍 Big Moves in Clean Energy! 🌍 FeTu, a green energy business based in West Yorkshire, is stepping up its game. Investing £1.5 million in a new manufacturing facility in Huddersfield, they're ready to meet the growing demand for their innovative technology. The brilliant tech behind FeTu enables companies to convert waste heat into electricity, even at temperatures as low as 40°C. This not only slashes energy costs but also significantly reduces carbon emissions. By producing components in-house, FeTu is now poised to deliver its groundbreaking 'Roticulating' turbine energy motor more efficiently and with greater quality control. Founded by Jon Fenton in 2016, FeTu has already made impressive strides with over £12 million secured in sponsorships and grants. Their new facility opens doors for a wider commercial roll-out, partnering with pioneering industrial firms. Imagine cutting down 80 million tonnes of carbon annually—a staggering 20% of the UK's current emissions. Let's discuss: How can businesses make the most of such renewable innovations?

Saving the equivalent in CO2 as driving a petrol-powered car to the moon and back every year. That's what our installation at Prodrive’s headquarters in Banbury is doing! Our #throwbackthursday is a reminder of when we installed 636kWp there, with an annual generation of 526,575kWh. That means 39% of the site's electricity needs are met on-site, and 469 tonnes of CO2 emissions are being saved over the project life (20 years). The 2,446 solar panels stacked on end would also be as tall as the Alps, giving Prodrive less of a mountain to climb when it comes to sustainability goals! 😉 For more about the projects we’e driving in communities, workplaces and homes, just head here: https://lnkd.in/ep-WmTHN #solarpowered #jojusolar #solarpanels #renewables #sustainability #workplacesolar #inspiration #thursdaythoughts
