SunGift Solar was thrilled to return to Plymouth Marine Laboratory (PML), a customer of ours committed to a sustainable future.

PML is a forward-thinking marine research charity. Dedicated to a sustainable future, PML conducts innovative, cutting-edge research to unlock the secrets of our oceans. Their work helps us understand and protect marine environments, ensuring clean, productive, and biologically diverse seas for generations to come.

Carport and rooftop PV

We first collaborated with PML to install a roof-mounted solar PV system, and in recent years followed up with the addition of a solar carport. The solar carport is a first of its kind installed in Plymouth and at the point of installation the two systems are expected to save 77 tonnes of carbon a year.

This time SunGift weren’t there to install another PV system but this return to PML involved talking with their employees. We wanted to speak to PML’s employees to think about the potential of installing solar energy into their own homes as many of them were interested in who had installed the systems at PML. That’s why we held a presentation and a Q&A session at PML in their MMC lecture theatre, highlighting the numerous benefits of installing solar PV systems, the ins and out of solar energy and of course introduced them to what SunGift is all about. The session was lead by Gabriel Wondrausch (founder and owner of SunGift Solar) and Ollie Gibbs (Head of Domestic Solar).

This interactive session provided PML employees with a clear understanding of how solar panels work and the ease of integrating them into their homes. During the presentation, Ollie Gibbs delivered a live demonstration, showcasing the process of designing a bespoke solar PV system on PV Sol. At the end of the presentation Ollie and Gabriel had a mini informal Q&A session, giving the employees the opportunity to speak to the energy experts one on one.

In addition to the educational aspects of our visit, we announced we’re offering a unique discount on solar PV systems specifically for PML employees. This initiative allows PML’s dedicated staff to make a positive environmental impact whilst saving money on their electricity bills. We want to thank Lee Merchant from PML for organising the event and giving us the opportunity to speak to employees at PML face to face.
