Testimonials

“Introducing a Solar PV system is a further way in which our school is helping pupils prepare for the future by providing them with first hand knowledge of renewable energy in addition to our already established eco curriculum and eco team. This project was brought to fruition with diligence and there can be little doubt that these renewable energy projects guarantee benefits to the school for years to come. The staff at Evogreen were professional, diligent and completely on top of their game”. – John Meaney – Headteacher

“It was important to make the right decision. This legacy will assist the school and the community long after the current Governing Body has moved on. Key to our decision was the 25 year all inclusive maintenance support, the significant financial returns the project would deliver over time and protection against rising energy bills.” – Paul Gibbard – Chair of Governors
