AES Solar are delighted to announce the launch of their custom built solar thermal panel service in association with their Endurance Range.

These panels can then be altered to accommodate the more difficult roof by taking our standard sizes and designs and adjusting to meet the  specific requirements. These adjustments also ensure the maintenance of the collector area and therefore the output performance.

These panels can also be customised in a wide variety of colours with these opportunities for customisation creating a wealth of possibilities for architects, designers, specifiers and homeowners alike.

The service was recently used in collaboration with Solar Kingdom in their shortlisted project for the prestigious Solar Power Portal Awards. Nominated for the Best Residential PV Project, we manufactured two of the custom built panels that fit snugly into the roof hips.

A vibrant team

The capability and flexibility to produce products such as this, is a reflection of the young and vibrant workforce at AES. With over 70% of the Forres office holding one or more degrees or professional qualification, there is also a variety of modern apprentices and graduate schemes on offer. In the last twelve months, the workforce has continued to grow, increasing by 50% despite the challenges the solar industry currently faces.

As well as our Endurance panels, we also manufacture our Supremacy range of roof integrated solar thermal panels. These offer a sleek and discrete appearance on any roof blending easily with the surface.

Business owner and MD George Goudsmit explained: “The team love a challenge that lifts them above the routine. It was their ideas that led to the development of this value added service. Word has spread quickly of what is possible, and I am pleasantly surprised at the number of enquiries received. No one has yet asked for outrageous colours but I suspect it is only time”.
