Top solar PV range joins organic energy line-up
A sustainable heating company headed by a Shrewsbury businessman has been named as a distributor for one of the world's leading global solar PV panel manufacturers.
Organic Energy has now secured an agreement to supply SCHOTT Solar PV products across the UK.
The extremely high quality of the SCHOTT Solar range, including up to 30-year efficiency guarantees, maintains Organic Energy's focus on providing nothing but class-leading installations. It is also the sole UK distributor of the sought-after ÖkoFEN wood pellet boilers,
The SCHOTT Solar PV range also provides a tremendous opportunity in the agricultural sector as the firm's power modules are among only a handful that have been independently tested and approved to withstand exposure to the ammonia produced in livestock farming environments for at least 25 years.
Organic Energy managing director and renewables expert, Andy Boroughs, said: “The Organic Energy ethos for quality in both products and service fits perfectly with the reputation of SCHOTT Solar products and we are extremely pleased to have been selected as one of a limited number UK suppliers of its solar photovoltaic range.
“The expansion of renewable energy generation is going to rely, in large part, on customers being convinced of the efficiency and longevity of their installations. Poor quality products, inappropriately installed, will damage the reputation of the whole sector, which is why at Organic Energy we are committed to only working with the best products available – products upon which we are happy to stake our hard-won reputation. The SCHOTT Solar range meets this need entirely and sits very well alongside the enviable reputation for quality and efficiency that our range of ÖkoFEN wood pellet boilers enjoys.”
Welshpool-based Organic Energy is expecting to see a sharp rise in the sales of solar PV systems thanks to the Government's Feed-in-Tariff which offers a payment for all electricity produced, as well as additional bonus payments for electricity exported into the grid.
Mr Bob Mills, UK sales director at SCHOTT Solar, said: "We are delighted to be working alongside Organic Energy, a company which has a passion of renewables and fits well with our ethos at SCHOTT Solar. We have no doubt that this new business relationship will be successful, given Organic Energy's already established reputation within the industry."
Organic Energy was the first company to introduce fully automatic wood pellet boilers to the UK, in the form of the multi award-winning ÖkoFEN range. It has now installed the boilers in an array of projects around the country, from large commercial projects to family homes.
Adding the SCHOTT Solar products to Organic Energy's range will allow the company to provide its clients with a one-stop solution to their renewable energy requirements. Organic Energy is also a supplier of Pellesol and Gasokol solar thermal hot water systems.
