Precision engineering solutions go for solar

Swiftool Precision Engineering are a progressive, award-winning company focusing on the supply of precision machined components to clients for over 40 years. They aim to expand their business by developing innovative partnerships with customers and suppliers and aspire to be known as the UK’s foremost precision engineering provider.

As a family business, Swiftool Precision Engineering strives to achieve sustainability and continue its service to society. When making commercial decisions, sustainable development features as predominantly as price and quality. Swiftool Precision Engineering  has a strong environmental policy- focusing on their senior management team’s commitment to the environment. Their dedication has warranted them a manufacturing facility that uses creative processes to provide a healthy and safe work environment for their employees.

Their commercial solar panel installation was another sustainable measure undertaken to enhance their environmental credentials.

After receiving our quote, Peter Tack chose to work with Geo Green Power as our price was comparative, our credentials were excellent, and he followed the company’s sustainable supplier procurement principles of choosing a local contractor to support reduced travel and the local economic community.

The project began with our technical design team attending to carry out pre-install surveys and our Planning & Permissions team securing DNO connection agreements.

With everything ready to progress, our site team installed the 617kW solar PV system, which is now producing 483,000kWh of clean, green electricity every year and the precision sheet metalwork and CNC machines component manufacturer is on track to see a full return on their investment in just four years.
