Energy network operator E.ON has partnered with Solar technology developer Naked Energy to deploy their Solar, Heat and Hybrid solutions for commercial and industrial scale projects across the UK and Europe.
The collaboration is a part of E.ON’s group wide innovation programme. This aims to test and deploy new technologies that can accelerate decarbonisation efforts in Europe.
Mark Ritzmann, Managing Director of E.ON Group Innovation, has praised the collaborators involved in the programme as they are essential in enabling the transition to renewable energy.
Naked Energy offer a variety of solar technologies including their VirtuPVT collector which generates electricity and heat from a single collector by combining Solar PV and Solar thermal technology. Their integrated solar technology for flat roof tops can utilise solar heat collectors, saving customers four times the amount of carbon as standard for a Solar PV panel.
The solar technologies being distributed as a part of E.ON and Naked Energy’s partnership will be deployed through E.ON’s Energy Infrastructure Solutions (EIS) business unit.
E.ON’s EIS business unit is currently present in 16 countries, serves 1.5million customers through 4500 energy plants and helps produce 19TwH of heating, cooling and steam as well as 12TwH of electricity.
Christophe Williams, CEO and Co-Founder of Naked Energy had this to say about E.ON and Naked Energy’s partnership:
“It’s an honour to partner with E.ON and support their customers to become climate neutral. “The need to decarbonise urban and industrial heating has never been more urgent, and the team at EIS share our vision for ambitious energy solutions that are future-proof, smart and efficient. This deal marks an exciting step forward in Naked Energy’s journey as we scale our operations globally. We look forward to beginning our work together.”
The partnership presents Naked Energy dedication to decarbonising Europe’s energy generation and continued expansion into European markets.
