bigHead manufacture bonded fasteners for a range of industries. Installing solar panels made commercial and environmental sense for the sustainability-focused, energy-intensive business. Wanting a trusted, local installer to carry out the work, bigHead reached out to Good Energy Solar.
“We are extremely impressed by the expertise and commitment both to sustainability and to great service displayed by the installation team.” Matthew Stevens, bigHead
Saving £8,000 per year on energy costs
Since having their solar panels installed, bigHead have seen big savings in their energy bills. In the first six months, they saved over £4,000 – and expect that to double over a year long period. During the summer months, bigHead were thrilled to see that their self-generated power covered 49% of their energy usage on site.
