(Alliance News) - eEnergy Group PLC on Monday said it has been selected as the preferred supplier for a programme to install rooftop solar photovoltaic systems at up to 47 schools in the east and west Midlands.
The London-based net zero energy services provider said the agreement is to design, supply, install and commission solar PV systems for schools under the Great British Energy Solar Partnership.
The programme covers 47 schools across Derbyshire, Staffordshire, Warwickshire, Worcestershire, Northamptonshire, Nottinghamshire, Birmingham, Wolverhampton and surrounding areas.
eEnergy said it will now start detailed design and planning for the first phases of the programme and will finalise contracts with each participating school and responsible body.
It said the delivery timeline aims for completion by the end of March 2026, which means the majority of the potential revenue will be recognised in the 2026 financial year.
"This is one of the UK's largest solar rollouts in education and our selection is testament to eEnergy's long-standing commitment to helping schools cut costs and carbon footprints. It marks an important milestone in our strategic pivot into public sector tenders, where our proven track record makes us a trusted delivery partner," said Chief Executive Officer Harvey Sinclair.
"This engagement represents our first collaboration with GBESP, beginning with the initial lot of the national rollout and laying the foundation for a major national program. We are proud that our bid was recognised not only for technical excellence and delivering significantly more solar capacity than pre-tender designs, but also for our commitment to social value and creating a lasting legacy."
Shares in eEnergy Group were up 6.9% at 6.20 pence in London on Monday morning.
