UPOWA lands 3-year solar PV agreement with Redrow
National housebuilder Redrow appoints UPOWA as one of its trusted solar PV partners.
UPOWA will provide renewable energy services to help Redrow create sustainable, future-proof new homes across five operational divisions, covering the Thames Valley and Southern regions.
Redrow will specify UPOWA’s Inline Solar system across its housing developments where there is a requirement for all-black roof-integrated solar panels.
We’re excited to announce a new national supplier agreement with Redrow to deliver the solar PV requirements for its housing developments over the next three years.
The partnership will see UPOWA supply its end-to-end renewable energy services to the housebuilder’s Thames Valley, Southern Counties, Southern, South East and South West regional offices.
As part of the agreement, UPOWA will manage the design, product supply, installation, and maintenance of solar PV systems to help Redrow create energy-efficient new homes that will protect their customers against rising energy costs. And, where there is a need for roof-integrated solar panels, UPOWA will supply its market-leading Inline Solar system, featuring sleek, all-black 400W solar panels.
UPOWA have been working with Redrow’s technical teams to identify the house types and roof elevations that can fit solar, and proposing standardised, cost-effective solutions to meet the new energy efficiency standards.
“We are committed to further improving the energy efficiency of our homes while maintaining our reputation for best in class build quality and design. We know how important energy efficiency is to our customers who are looking to reduce their costs and carbon footprint simultaneously.
We’re proud to partner with UPOWA. With their solar expertise and proven track record in delivering consistent, high-quality services we can build sustainable, future proof homes for our customers”
“We are delighted that Redrow has chosen UPOWA as its trusted solar PV partner to help future-proof their developments for the next three years.
We look forward to supplying a one-stop shop solar PV solution to ensure Redrow save time and money meeting the new Part L Regulations and create high-quality, eco-friendly new homes that reduce energy bills for homeowners.”
