"With support from Green Economy's fully funded accelerator training, we were able to carry out our first solar PV and battery storage projects. As part of their ongoing support we were also guided through the MCS certification process and we are now a fully accredited installer, and are looking to carry out more solar PV and battery storage installations going forward."
