Solarsense has moved into their new zero carbon office.  

We are pleased to announce the completion of our Zero Carbon Office project. After a long, anticipated wait the team have finally moved in and are beginning to settle in to their beautiful new surroundings.

As well as an office the building will act as a demonstration and training centre for businesses and the general public to learn about sustainabilty and renewable energy technologies.

A special thank you to Askew  Cavanna architects, for delivering such a wonderful building for us to all work in.
