By becoming a Living Wage Employer, we join a growing network of responsible businesses committed to ensuring their teams receive fair pay for their work.

Chris Balmer, Managing Director, said, “This accreditation is an important milestone for our company and reflects something we have always believed: our people are at the heart of our success. The dedication, professionalism and hard work demonstrated by our team every day are what enable AR Power to continue growing and delivering outstanding results for our customers.

🚶‍♂️When it comes to health and wellbeing, we’re taking big steps in the right direction.

As part of our ongoing commitment to support the health, wellbeing and engagement of our team, we’re excited to launch our new walking group.

The group will give colleagues the opportunity to step away from their desks, get some fresh air, enjoy a bit of exercise and spend time together outside of the usual working environment. It’s a great way to encourage healthy habits while building stronger connections across the business.

This latest initiative complements the range of activities which already take place throughout the year including volunteering opportunities, regular football matches and even our (very competitive!) cheese competitions 🧀

Creating a positive workplace isn’t just about the work we do, it’s about investing in our people, supporting each other and creating opportunities to connect as a team.

A big thank you to everyone who has joined the walking group so far, we’re looking forward to seeing where the next steps take us!

One of the questions we're asked most often is: "What does a commercial solar installation actually involve?"

The reality is that, with the right planning and an experienced delivery team, the process is far more straightforward than many businesses expect.

Our latest blog takes you behind the scenes of a commercial solar installation project, explaining each step of the journey and answering some of the most common questions businesses have before making the move to solar.

Whether you're just starting to explore renewable energy or you're ready to begin your solar journey, it's a great place to start.

As schools and public sector organisations look for ways to reduce energy costs and lower their carbon footprint, solar PV provides a practical solution that delivers long-term benefits.

In a look back at our project with Benfield School in 2024, this was delivered in partnership with Equans and Newcastle City Council.

Our team designed and installed a large-scale solar PV system across the school’s main building and sports centre, ensuring the project was completed safely, efficiently and with minimal disruption to day-to-day activities.

We think you’ll agree, the results speak for themselves. 👇
