We’ve generated 1 MW of electricity in less than six months – enough to power 1,000 homes! We invested in solar power to take advantage of subsidies available through the UK’s feed-in-tariff, to save on utility bills and to enhance our environmental commitments.
It took just three days to install the modules and was carried out by Tenesol’s local installation partner J Brand, an electrical contractor. The modules were supplied from Tenesol’s European production facility in Toulouse, France. Read more.

“We've invested heavily over the past 20 years – our key focus has been to produce highly durable labelling solutions that can be quickly and easily prepared and applied by our customers. In short, we turn time into profit. We are sure that our extra cost savings will be well received.” comments Nick Michaelson.
