It’s Giving Tuesday 🎁🤝🏻

Created in 2012, giving Tuesday is a day that encourages people to do good. You can volunteer your time; donate money; share your skills; campaign for something good; donate goods, food, or clothes; organise a community event, the list is endless! 📜

This year we have chosen to donate to our local foodbank. Everyone in the company contributed, whether it was a cash donation or food which was topped up by our directors meaning we have managed to get together a great selection of toiletries and food, including some Christmas treats! 🎅🏻

As always, a big thank you to all our colleagues for their generosity and support. 🤝🏻

If you’re able to, do something for someone else today 🥰

As the end of November draws in, so does having to look at these glorious moustaches around the office. Due to November ending on Sunday this year, we gathered our brave volunteers early to showcase their fantastic attempts at supporting such a great cause before all evidence is removed come Monday. 🪒

As a company we’re incredibly proud of everyone’s efforts, for pushing through the itchy discomfort and jokes they’ve had to put up with over this month. 😅

A big thank you to Archie, Corey, Ethan, Euan, Matt, Mosh, Ryan and our managing director Pablo Esco- I mean Edward Allen for participating.

#Movember #MensHealth #GrowAMo #SuicidePrevention #ProstateCancerAwareness #MentalHealthMatters #MoBros

Did you know that on average, men will die 4.5 years earlier than women, and that this is largely from preventable reasons?

◽ Around 10.8 million men are facing life with a prostate cancer diagnosis
◽ Globally, testicular cancer is the most common cancer among young men
◽ Across the world, one man dies by suicide every minute of every day, with males accounting for 69% of all suicides

Movember is the leading charity changing the face of men’s health. They make change by:

◽ Giving men the facts
◽ Changing behaviour for the better
◽ Creating services that work for men
◽ Uniting the brightest minds
◽ Listening to the community and advocating for men

Since 2003, Movember has funded more than 1,250 men’s health projects around the world, challenging the status quo, shaking up men’s health research and transforming the way health services reach and support men.

We are proud to announce that eight of our colleagues have signed up to the Movember challenge of growing a moustache and raising funds for men’s health.

As we enter the last two weeks of Movember, the office is filled with grumbles of “it’s really itchy” and “but it’s my birthday this weekend, I can’t go out looking like this” but our guys are still hanging in there!

If you’re able to, please make a donation to show your support, we look forward to sharing the end result with you all! 👨🏻👨🏼

An annual event that encourages individuals to practice kindness in their daily lives.

We asked our colleagues what kindness means to them:
People checking in on you 📞
Smiling at someone 🙂
Treating a stranger to a drink ☕
Being supportive and showing empathy 💕
Self-reflection 👩🏻🧑🏻
Acts where nothing is expected in return 🎁
Giving someone a compliment 🥰

We’re acknowledging the day by giving our colleagues a sweet treat with a little something sweet attached 🍬

“You cannot do kindness too soon, for you never know how soon it will be too late”

#worldkindnessday #bekind

We are delighted to announce our successful audit results against the ISO 9001 & 14001 standards, where we achieved a perfect score! “No major or minor non-conformances, and no suggested improvements”. ⭐

What are these standards about?
ISO 9001 is a globally recognized standard for quality management. It helps organizations of all sizes and sectors to improve their performance, meet customer expectations and demonstrate their commitment to quality. Its requirements define how to establish, implement, maintain, and continually improve a quality management system (QMS).
Implementing ISO 9001 means your organization has put in place effective processes and trained staff to deliver flawless products or services time after time.

ISO 14001 is the internationally recognized standard for environmental management systems (EMS). It provides a framework for organizations to design and implement an EMS, and continually improve their environmental performance. By adhering to this standard, organizations can ensure they are taking proactive measures to minimize their environmental footprint, comply with relevant legal requirements, and achieve their environmental objectives. The framework encompasses various aspects, from resource usage and waste management to monitoring environmental performance and involving stakeholders in environmental commitments.”

Congratulations to the team for their continuous hard work and dedication to the business 👏🏻

We’re back! 👋🏻 Did you miss us?

We have had an absolutely jam packed Q3 and we’re just coming up for air before we jump into Q4, so we thought we’d let you know what we’ve been up to!

At the start of July, we moved into a new, much bigger, modernised office. 🏢 We were ready for an upgrade due to the increased growth we’ve had across the company this year which is continuing. We celebrated our first day with some prosecco and nibbles whilst taking our time to settle in and check out the new areas in the office with the favourite being (and still is) the breakout room complete with pool table! 🥂🎱

Along with the growth across departments, we also created new internal positions to help manage this development which the team have taken in their stride and are excelling in the new roles. 👩🏻‍💼👨🏻‍💼

To close off a successful few months, the directors treated us to a great summer party with food and drinks on tap and we were lucky to have lovely weather alongside the evening. 🌞

As we now head into the final portion of the year, we are continuing to grow our teams as the business goes from strength to strength, so if you’re looking for a new position and might be interested, please reach out and we can discuss the current roles we have available.

UT Power Limited have recently completed the installation of a 10.32kW rooftop Solar PV system for YMCA Newton Youth Centre.

Newton Youth Centre is a vibrant hub for young people and the wider community in the heart of Newtown. Services include a popular youth club, AstroTurf pitch, music projects, community space hire, dance studio, indoor hall and more. Since 2002, YMCA Fairthorne Group has grown to support over 40,000 children, young people, and families every year across Hampshire and Isle of Wight to ensure everyone has the opportunities they need to lead happy healthy lives. Thank you, YMCA, for the wonderful much needed work you do.

It has been a delight working with YMCA on this install, which will improve their green credentials by lowering their carbon footprint and provide them with around 9,587.28 kWh of 100% green, self-generated energy per annum.

Installation details:
⚡- System size – 10.32 kW
☀- Number of panels – 24 x 430w Trinasolar
🌳- CO2 emissions reduced – 4.3 tonnes per year
🔌- Annual energy generation – 9,587.28 kWh
☀- PV Panel Brand – Trina Solar Vertex S
📍- Location – hashtag#Newtown, hashtag#Southampton
🔧- Mounting Kit – Van der Valk Solar Systems
☀ – Solar- Inverter – Solis 10kW inverter with online performance monitoring

A comment from our Renewables Development Manager Matthew Cann BSc:
“We were introduced and recommended to YMCA Newton Youth Centre through their energy and carbon consultant, who we have worked closely before with other clients. Their aim was to reduce their energy consumption and their carbon footprint.

We were pleased to have been awarded the project after a selection process involving other PV companies, as we have vast experience in helping
organisations save money through the installation of Renewable/ Energy efficiency solutions and therefore decarbonising their operations. YMCA Newton Youth Centre have been a pleasure to work with and we look forward to working alongside them to improve their ever-growing green credentials.”

A massive shout out to everyone at UT Power Limited who continue to deliver excellent workmanship. Thank you to YMCA for appointing us as your installer of choice.

Between the 29th of April – 5th May we dedicate this week to discuss mental health problems before, during and after pregnancy.

Maternal mental health is often overlooked, but did you know 20% of new and expectant mothers are affected by mental health struggles in the UK each year?

At a time that is mainly associated with positivity and celebration many women find it difficult to deal with the stigma around struggling with their mental health.

If you are struggling with mental health after having a baby don’t be afraid to reach out and ask for help. The most important thing to remember is that you are not alone, there is support out there. Speak to your GP, health visitor or one of the helplines listed below.

Some of the available helplines in the UK are:
– MumsAid: 07758 763908
– Association for Post Natal Illness: 0207 386 0868
– PANDAS: 0808 1961 776

Did you know, the planet is losing 10 million hectares of forests every year – an area larger than Iceland!

Established in 2009, environmentalists mark the 22nd of April to gather from all over the world highlighting the urgent need to protect the many ecosystems that make up our environment.

It is estimated that around 1 million animal and plant species are now threatened with extinction.

Everyone can help limit climate change, start implementing the below changes into daily life.

💡 Save energy – Use less energy by lowering your heating and cooling, switch to LED lighting and energy efficient machinery and appliances.

🚲 Walk, cycle, or take public transport – Not only does walking and cycling help your health it also lowers greenhouse emissions. For longer journeys take public transport when you can.

♻ Reduce, reuse & recycle – Buy fewer items, shop second-hand and recycle. The items we buy produce carbon emissions at each point of production from manufacturing to transporting the goods to our doors.

☀ Change your source of energy – Contact us today to switch to renewable sources such as Solar PV!

Did you know, an energy efficient office can save on average 65% on its energy bills!

Simple ways to cut costs:

🔥 Heating – Raising the temperature by 1 degree Celsius can increase your heating costs by on average 8%.

💡 Lighting – Installing LED lighting can reduce your lighting bill by up to 80%. Encourage staff to switch lights off when they’re not needed. Use movement detectors, time switches and daylight sensors.

🖥 Computers – Turning IT equipment off at night can save you £35 a year per desk. Use the energy-saving features on other electrical equipment like monitors and printers.

To give our employees a much-deserved break, our office is closed from tomorrow, the 21st.

We’d like to take this time to say thank you to our employees for all their continued hard work this year.

We hope all our customers and partners have a lovely Christmas and New Year! 🥂

We’re reminiscing about some of the fantastic projects we’ve been proud to deliver this year.

Our 2023 Solar PV installations will collectively save our clients 247.8 tonnes of CO2 emissions and generate 551,584.27 kwh of self-harvested green energy per year.

This level of CO2 offset is equivalent to the CO2 emissions from:
🔥 277,574 pounds of coal burned.
🚗 635,247 miles driven by an average gasoline-powered passenger vehicle.
📱 30,143,048 smartphones charged using ‘brown’ grid energy.

It would take 4,097 tree seedlings to grow for 10 years to sequester this level of CO2. 🌳

We would like to take this moment to thank our wonderful customers for appointing us as their installer of choice.

Also, a massive thank you to our employees who’ve helped deliver these amazing results. 👏🏻

If improving your carbon footprint and saving money in the process is one of your New Year resolutions, please get in touch and we will be ready and waiting to help!
