Annual savings of £16,000+ for Links Academy schools.

Links Academy took a bold step towards sustainability by installing solar panels and electric vehicle (EV) charging points across three of its schools. With our guidance, they’ve not only reduced their carbon footprint and operational costs, but also helped future proof the schools and supported staff, governors, visitors and the local community by offering access to an EV charging facility.
