Independent renewable energy consultants advising on solar farm projects:
Viridis Energie Consultants have, and are, consulted/ing on large scale solar PV projects.
Solar PV is, perhaps, becoming the investment choice for shrewd investors? With the introduction of the Feed in Tariff, many large investors are turning to renewable energy for a guaranteed (for up to 25 years), index linked. return (usually in excess of 10% pa), instead of more traditional (riskier?) investments.
Barry Nutley, partner at Viridis Energie Consultants (one of the few totally independent renewable energy consultants in the UK) said, “We have seen a huge increase in enquiries for solar “farms”, and other large scale applications. If you have a large roof (or lots of roofs!), or some spare land, it does make financial sense. That’s not all… The subsequent PR from such an installation, could also be invaluable for any business?? “
However, this isn’t cheap! However, many companies are looking at funding/financing such schemes.. We can help with this too..
