contract.<\/p>\n<p>The contract with Elland-based manufacturer, Decorative Panels, will see the installation of a full overclad of 6,700 square meters of existing roof and the fitting of more than 2,000 PV solar panels.<\/p>\n<p>Paul Radcliffe, managing director at Radcliffe Construction, said:\u00a0\u201cWe have a long-standing relationship with the team at Decorative Panels and are delighted to be working with them again, having completed a 30,000 square foot warehouse extension project for the company in 2020.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur latest project will provide Decorative Panels with a new waterproof roofing system to help futureproof their manufacturing facility and play a key role in helping the company to reduce overall Co2 emissions by around 304kg per year through the installation of PV solar panels.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe panels will provide just over 1.1million kWh\/year of electrical energy that Decorative Panels can sell back to the National Grid, helping to pay off the panels in around three years and saving the company almost \u00a36million over the lifetime of the panels, which is around 30 years.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Radcliffe
