A complete turnkey solution
Anesco has managed the design and construction of some of the UK’s largest and most complex ground mount solar PV schemes.
Our specialist team offers a comprehensive service, from planning through to DNO liaison, construction and monitoring and maintenance for the life of the project.
At Anesco we develop, construct, operate and maintain high-performing utility scale solar farms; using ground mount solar PV, providing a complete turnkey solution for investors and landowners alike.
Hailed as industry pioneers, our extensive knowledge and experience spans solar PV and hybrid solutions, where solar and battery storage technologies are combined.
We take a unified approach to renewable energy, managing every aspect of a highly involved design, engineering and construction process. This is a key differentiator and coupled with our long term partner relationships, sets us apart from our competitors.
With a strong track record for building high quality ground mount solar sites, we have a comprehensive selection process that ensures the best sites are chosen for construction and the best prices for hardware are secured.
To date, we have built 106 utility scale solar farms. This includes the country’s first subsidy-free solar farm, known as Clayhill, a utility scale hybrid installation comprising of 10MW of solar and 6MW of energy storage, which was completed in 2017.
Utility Scale Energy Storage
Anesco is also the UK market leader for deploying and commissioning utility scale batteries for grid support and auxiliary services. Currently, Anesco has installed 150MW of battery stoarge across 33 sites, with a further 250MW of battery projects currently under construction.
Operations & Maintenance – Critical to Success
Operations and maintenance is vital for the success of any utility scale solar investment and at Anesco we take a proactive approach to managing assets.
Our state of the art in-house Network Operations Centre (NOC) works to industry standards and best practice, monitoring thousands of assets to maximise system performance, decrease downtime and ensure regulatory compliance.
Health & Safety
Anesco team members are direct employees and health and safety is of vital importance. We are proud of our exemplary safety record, being OHSAS 18001 and RoSPA Gold accredited for our approach to safety and the prevention of accidents.
Protecting the Environment
At all stages of development, consideration is given to the existing environment and natural habitats. Since 2016, we have worked closely with the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB), Europe’s largest nature conservation charity, to enhance the biodiversity of our solar farms, creating natural habitats for some of the country’s most at risk species and areas where wildlife and nature can flourish.
