Many months of operation, has resulted in further projects being considered by the council. Our solar lighting trial has been a huge success, feedback from both the householders and our own maintenance team has been really positive.
John Hopkin
Contract Officer, North Ayrshire Council
QinetiQ has a target of becoming Net-Zero with ambitious near-term GHG reduction targets. To assist, Prolectric assessed our lighting needs, developed a detailed plan and installed over 129 solar street lights and bollards at our HQ. The lights are bright and reliable, improving health and safety. The lighting is high quality and robust in harsh weather. All lighting so far has required minimal maintenance and been well received by our company and tenants.
Simon Homer
Project Manager, QinetiQ
After researching the technology in more detail, we decided to install Prolectric’s solar lighting on our site. The installation was completed in early November and I am pleased to say that the technology has performed very well through the harsh winter months.
