🌍 Happy International Mother Earth Day! 🌍

Did you know, the planet is losing 10 million hectares of forests every year – an area larger than Iceland!

Established in 2009, environmentalists mark the 22nd of April to gather from all over the world highlighting the urgent need to protect the many ecosystems that make up our environment.

It is estimated that around 1 million animal and plant species are now threatened with extinction.

Everyone can help limit climate change, start implementing the below changes into daily life.

💡 Save energy – Use less energy by lowering your heating and cooling, switch to LED lighting and energy efficient machinery and appliances.

🚲 Walk, cycle, or take public transport – Not only does walking and cycling help your health it also lowers greenhouse emissions. For longer journeys take public transport when you can.

♻ Reduce, reuse & recycle – Buy fewer items, shop second-hand and recycle. The items we buy produce carbon emissions at each point of production from manufacturing to transporting the goods to our doors.

☀ Change your source of energy – Contact us today to switch to renewable sources such as Solar PV!

Simple ways to cut costs:

🔥 Heating – Raising the temperature by 1 degree Celsius can increase your heating costs by on average 8%.

💡 Lighting – Installing LED lighting can reduce your lighting bill by up to 80%. Encourage staff to switch lights off when they’re not needed. Use movement detectors, time switches and daylight sensors.

🖥 Computers – Turning IT equipment off at night can save you £35 a year per desk. Use the energy-saving features on other electrical equipment like monitors and printers.

Merry Christmas!

To give our employees a much-deserved break, our office is closed from tomorrow, the 21st.

We’d like to take this time to say thank you to our employees for all their continued hard work this year.

We hope all our customers and partners have a lovely Christmas and New Year! 🥂

What an amazing year it’s been for UT Power Limited!

We’re reminiscing about some of the fantastic projects we’ve been proud to deliver this year.

Our 2023 Solar PV installations will collectively save our clients 247.8 tonnes of CO2 emissions and generate 551,584.27 kwh of self-harvested green energy per year.

This level of CO2 offset is equivalent to the CO2 emissions from:
🔥 277,574 pounds of coal burned.
🚗 635,247 miles driven by an average gasoline-powered passenger vehicle.
📱 30,143,048 smartphones charged using ‘brown’ grid energy.

It would take 4,097 tree seedlings to grow for 10 years to sequester this level of CO2. 🌳

We would like to take this moment to thank our wonderful customers for appointing us as their installer of choice.

Also, a massive thank you to our employees who’ve helped deliver these amazing results. 👏🏻

If improving your carbon footprint and saving money in the process is one of your New Year resolutions, please get in touch and we will be ready and waiting to help!

Bird Blockers – Protect your Solar PV array! 🐦

Did you know, birds can cause damage to both the exterior and interior components of your Solar Panels? Ultimately damaging your Solar investment.

Bird droppings contain high levels of acidity, which can cause erosion to wires, and even damage the surface of your solar panels. The output from the panels decreases when the natural ventilation beneath the panels is restricted by twigs and other nesting materials. The hotter the panels get, the lower the efficiency and a higher risk of a fire. The twigs they bring with them may also scratch the back sheet of the panel, which can result in earth leakage errors.

Investing in bird blockers will guarantee that birds will not be able to nest under the panels. This will ensure the longevity of your panels working at optimum capacity.

As well as futureproofing solar PV array’s with measures such as Bird Blockers, we also offer a range of maintenance packages to also ensure longevity of your investment through continued generation efficiency.

Are you looking to invest in Solar PV? ☀

❗Important reminder ❗

Don’t forget to send in your meter reads!

This will ensure your bills are accurate, as the suppliers will base their calculations on the exact amount of energy you’ve used. 💡

A guide to Smart Meters! 💡

Are you unsure about having a smart meter installed? Keep reading to find out more!

What is a smart meter?

Smart meters measure your energy usage using a secure, wireless network to send meter readings to your energy supplier directly every month.

Do you need a smart meter?

To determine if you should have a smart meter installed, let’s look at the benefits smart meters provide. 

  • More accurate bills – No estimated meter readings, all your bills are calculated using your actual energy usage.
  • Automated meter readings – Say goodbye to sending in manual meter reads each month, your smart meter does all the work for you.
  • Insight into historical usage data – Review your historical data to ensure you’re not wasting energy without knowing.
  • No extra cost – Most suppliers will install a smart meter for free when paired with a supply contract.

Convinced you need a smart meter; how do you request an installation?

Contact one of our advisors today and they can point you in the right direction!
