Cornwall Solar Supply Chain Directory
Cornwall is experiencing enormous interest in the development of large scale ‘solar farms’ across the whole of Cornwall. Cornwall has the highest sunlight levels in the UK and the recently introduced Feed-In Tariff provides attractive financial incentives for renewable energy development.
In order to maximise the economic benefits of the solar gold rush for Cornish companies, Cornwall Development Company and Cornwall Council have developed an online Cornwall PV Supply Chain Directory. The directory provides international PV solar park developers with contact and service information about local companies. It aims to assist and improve opportunities for the development of a robust and effective local supply chain industry for solar photovoltaic installation at both commercial and domestic sizes. Cornish businesses that can offer services such as ground works, construction, landscaping, electrical/mechanical engineering, plant hire, maintenance and professional services can be listed in the directory free of charge. To register your business visit www.cornwallsolardirectory.co.uk
