Announcing the new partnership, Kathryn Adams, Commercial Director, Prolectric comments: “We are excited by the prospect of a truly collaborative partnership with Tecoled as our first distributor of off-grid solar lighting and power products in Ireland. We have a shared ethos, which is committed to reduced power consumption and cost savings for our customers. Prolectric is passionate about enabling businesses to deliver on their sustainability commitments by moving away from fossil fuels and saving money. Tecoled has a great reputation for working with their customers to advise on the best energy and cost-efficient lighting solutions. We look forward to working together to introduce the benefits of off-grid solar lighting and power to the Irish market. Moving away from diesel and switching to solar is not just the best outcome for the environment, but it makes great commercial sense too.”

Kieran Hickey, Director, Tecoled comments: “We are delighted to be working with Prolectric to introduce their specialist range of off-grid solar power and lighting products. Like Prolectric, working to the highest product standards, we are established problem solvers, sharing a similar customer mindset and approach. Whilst specialising in commercial and industrial lighting, our primary focus is to help our customers to reduce their power consumption and maintenance costs, whilst also lowering their carbon footprint. We are excited to bring Prolectric’s solar products to market, extending our range and expertise in this important area where sustainability and money saving are increasingly becoming major priorities for many of our customers.”

“Prolectric’s product range is well-known for its innovative engineering and reliability. Their solar lighting towers and power solutions stand out for their efficiency and durability, making them a perfect match for Tecoled’s commitment to high-quality, cost-effective solutions. There is a strong appetite for Prolectric’s products in Ireland as businesses increasingly seek to reduce their carbon footprints and comply with stringent environmental regulations. The shift towards sustainable energy solutions is not only beneficial for the environment but also aligns with the economic interests of many companies.”

Serving a wide range of industries from construction, housebuilding, MOD and rail to major infrastructure, as a solar-first business, Prolectric is focussed on setting new engineering standards in solar lighting, power technology and advanced automation software. Since launching the company’s first solar lighting tower, Prolectric has saved its customers over 29 million kg of CO₂ and reduced diesel usage by more than 10 million litres, which represents a customer saving of more than £11 million.
