The heros at @thesolartrade have a brilliant track record of member support. Delighted to see this move. https://t.co/5UVnB0DBAh pic.twitter.com/3NbSPaZBLG— David Clubb (@davidoclubb) December 12, 2016
Our friends at the Solar Trade Association have signed a lease to share accommodation with our colleagues at our head office in London.
The move creates a shared space with two of the UK’s most influential energy trade bodies, and will lead to closer working between two of the most complementary energy technologies – wind and solar.
Wind and solar are complementary because wind output is significantly higher outside the summer months, meaning that a combination of large installed solar and wind capacity provides solid year-round generation
Commenting on the development, David Clubb said:
“There are natural synergies between the wind and solar sectors, and although we will maintain our distinct voices and policy priorities, there can be little doubt that the sharing of facilities will provide us with a stronger overall voice for the sector, and greater understanding of the needs of all our members”.
