HBS New Energies commences construction of 30 MWp solar portfolio in England
HBS New Energies (HBS) has completed the first installation of a 30 MWp solar portfolio located in the East of England. The solar PV plants are to be designed and installed by HBS New Energies across Anglian Water’s sites in the region, with the utility company purchasing the power produced for 30 years.
Macquarie is funding the installation of the solar systems and will own, maintain and operate them with HBS once completed.
The portfolio comprises plants ranging from c.200 kWp to 15 MWp in size. Once complete, the solar installations are expected to save more than 9,000 tonnes of carbon emissions annually compared to power sourced from the UK grid – the equivalent of over 1,000 households in the UK.
