Who We Are
Our Principles
A central theme of our activities is to promote and facilitate energy efficient, all-electric homes and businesses. Our resources can be directed to new builds, extensions, renovations and retrofits, appliance upgrades, and general efficiency improvements.
We have established supply relationships and service mechanisms in place with major suppliers of high quality solar, battery, heat pump, hydronic, heating and cooling, insulation and EV charging products, along with a range of environmentally friendly paints and oils in the store.
