In 2019, Green Team Partnership designed and installed a ground-mounted solar system at Tanfield Business Centre for Durham County Council. The 750-module array in County Durham complements a previous rooftop installation, increasing renewable generation and cutting the Council’s reliance on grid power.
Appointed through a competitive tender, GTP was selected for proven expertise and certifications in large-scale ground-mounted projects. The system continues to deliver energy savings, lower costs and reduced carbon emissions across Council operations.
Impact and benefits
- Expanded renewable capacity. Ground-mount generation on top of the existing rooftop system transforms the site’s output.
- Lower energy expenditure. Reduced annual costs and protection against market volatility for public budgets.
- Rigorous procurement. Appointment earned on quality, competence and certification.
- Durable engineering. Optimal orientation and low-maintenance design for decades of service.
