Heat Recovery
ESF have been asked to look at a number of projects to recover heat from water, gas cooling and exhaust stacks as well as projects to optimize and update existing heat recovery systems.
Solar PV
ESF raised funding for a 10.5MW solar farm on behalf of a well established EPC contractor and developer.
ESF can also arrange for the purchase of shovel ready ground mount and rooftop projects as well as the aggregation of established operating solar PV assets.
STOR
ESF is currently raising equity and debt for an established STOR operator to install plant and transmission equipment used to generate standby power assisting the National Grid to meet its capacity market requirements.
