All-Electric Hi-Fi

The more eagle-eyed amongst you might have noticed a new banner at the bottom of our web site. At the end of last year we installed about 12kW of Solar PV on our roof, which in theory at least is likely to reduce our carbon footprint by about 2 tonnes of CO2 per year. With all-electric vehicles and a 7kW charge point on the front of the building, we are trying to become a net-zero carbon company.
