UPOWA secures 3-year solar PV supply agreement with Barratt Homes
Posted: Thursday, June 15th, 2023
UPOWA will partner with eight Barratt and David Wilson Homes divisions to support their Part L transition and full implementation needs for sites throughout Southern and Western areas of the country, Professional Electrician reported. Under the partnership, the UPOWA team will manage the design, product supply, installation, and maintenance of solar PV systems to help the UK’s biggest housebuilder deliver sustainable homes that are fit for the future. Where there is a need for roof-integrated solar panels, UPOWA will supply its market-leading Inline Solar system. James Bull, managing director at UPOWA, said: “We are proud to get this deal over the line and become one of Barratt Developments’ trusted solar PV suppliers. With a track record of delivering first-class solar PV installations for several of its divisions over the last ten years, this new partnership confirms its trust in our specialist solar product and service.” UPOWA will support the Barratt and David Wilson Homes divisions with all their solar specification needs to make the primary energy part of Part L transition as pain-free as possible. This includes helping to find cost-friendly PV solutions to meet the new carbon reduction targets. Currently, around 10% of the 180,000 new homes built in England have solar PV installed. It’s estimated that this figure will rise rapidly to as much as 80% as the new Part L and the Future Homes Standards come into force from June this year.
