This year, Silson has installed a 39.12 kW system of Solar PV on the roof of our building, to offset a large proportion of our energy usage!
In just 6 months we have generated 26 Mwh, which equates to an estimated 5.2 tonnes of CO2 saved!
Huge thanks to the team at KS Connexions for the efficient installation and support since.
We received a grant for the installation from the Coventry and Warwickshire Green Business Programme. The Coventry and Warwickshire Green Business Programme is partly funded by the European Regional Development Fund and is being delivered by Coventry City Council, Coventry University, and Coventry University Enterprises Ltd.
We are excited to announce that Silson have been awarded an innovation grant through the Aerospace UP programme!
Our aim is to develop a prototype Silicon carbide (SiC) pressure sensor for harsh environments utilising our microfabrication expertise to overcome the challenges of high costs, poor scalability and difficult processing normally associated with SiC.
