The first step in this journey was their facility in South Shields, collaborating with SCJ Renewables to install a cutting-edge solar PV system in line with British Engines’ broader sustainable goals.

SCJ Renewables fitted a 1.512 MWp system, compromising of 2,500 panels and capable of generating an estimated 1,300,000 kWh of energy per year – enough to power over 600 homes in the UK.

Alongside its energy generation, it brings significant environmental benefit with savings of an estimated 500,000 kg of Co2 emissions each year.

SCJ’s installation team worked alongside the Rotary Power team to navigate the complexity of integrating the solar infrastructure into an active manufacturing site.

The installation also included;

  • 100km of electrical cabling.
  • High Specification Containment:
    • Zinc Magnesium Box Trunking
    • Atkore Defender Strut, Tray, and Tray Lid
  • SCJ’s first Operating and Maintenance Package permanently in place on site.
