One for Contractor of the Year, and the other for Renewable Installation of the Year, for its solar transformation at Poole Hospital in Dorset.
Aztec Solar Energy partnered with Centrica Business Solutions to design and install the solar PV installation on the roof of the hospital. As part of the pledge by the NHS to reduce their carbon footprint and work towards Net Zero, funding was put towards a sustainability programme for the hospital. The 202.1 kWp solar PV installation is expected to save 41.56 tonnes of carbon per annum, equivalent to planting around 1,909 trees.
