design-led innovation

This exciting adventure started by wanting to create a new clean solar energy product that I’d be happy to use at home to power my house and my car. Little did I know that it would result in a number of hugely exciting sustainable products that can help not only homeowners but large commercial buildings as well. I’m proud to be leading such a passionate, talented team, working with world-class engineers, project managers and investors all pulling in the right direction to create design-led innovations for an environmentally-friendly and sustainable future.

the energy behind new generation solar

We are on a mission to make it as easy as possible for mega-buildings and home owners to decarbonise by installing our innovative thin-film solar solutions. We are pioneering truly sustainable products for a fast, evolving market. We want to be pivotal in reducing reliance on non-renewable energy sources, make cost-efficient energy generation and storage available to many, facilitate the transition to more energy efficient vehicles powered with renewable energy, and trade excess renewable energy to others to create a cleaner environment for everyone.

Our vision for energy change

All of our core products are cleaner and more sustainable in their manufacture, in use and at the end of their economic lives than more conventional alternatives. We are passionate about providing design-led solutions that contribute to securing energy supply, saving money and combatting climate change, making it as easy as possible for mega-buildings and home owners to decarbonise.
