The brief

As part of its net zero targets, Essex County Council (ECC) is keen to explore opportunities to increase local renewable energy generation through collective purchasing of solar PV panels.

This will provide a significant benefit to residents and local businesses by providing an easy, good-value route to high quality solar PV installations.
