Brief outline of sungift solar as a company

Main office in Exeter and small office in Totnes, 2 fully trainer installers who work for them.

They have been going for 2 years and accredited with the UK-microgeneration scheme to allow the low carbon building programme grants and members of the solar trade association, the renewable energy assurance listing, Devon cc trading standards buy with confidence scheme.

Renewable energy installations

We are hoping to compile a register of people in the Totnes area who have installed solar water heating, PV, wind turbines or other renewable energy source, at home or at their business premises, and who would be willing to show people their installation and share their experience.  Clearly, visits by interested groups or individuals would be occasional and at the convenience of the owner of the installation.
