Green Economy accelerates green tech investment for West Yorkshire based nursery

Read time: Around 1 minute

Little Wellies Solar Install

Little Wellies are a family-owned day nursery with three locations, based in West Yorkshire. After receiving a grant from West Yorkshire Combined Authority to install solar PV at one of their locations, they were introduced to Green Economy to simplify the investment process.

 

The Challenge

Finding the right solar supplier can be daunting, especially for smaller businesses having to contend with a lot of market noise and often conflicting advice. Green Economy’s free supplier sourcing process eliminates this uncertainty, giving organisations confidence that their investment is being well spent.

Priya Sirpal, Commercial Partnerships Manager, worked with the business to develop the project scope, and shared the opportunity with Green Economy Marketplace members; our curated list of trusted local suppliers.

 

Introduction to Purelec

Purelec are a solar PV and battery installer based in West Yorkshire. They have been working with Green Economy consultants to increase their visibility in the marketplace and access new growth opportunities. After receiving a notice of the opportunity in our weekly Member News email, their tender was successful and they were introduced to Little Wellies to carry out the work.

The Impact

Green Economy have been hard at work empowering the sustainable supply chain in West Yorkshire, and this project is the perfect example of the benefits of connecting local supply networks.

As a result of our work:

  • Little Wellies were able to invest in confidence, receiving free and impartial support from Green Economy throughout the procurement process
  • Purelec successfully won £10,000 of new business, furthering their presence in the local sustainable marketplace
  • West Yorkshire Combined Authority can be sure that their grant funding is providing maximum impact and powering growth in the local area.

Green Economy’s help was invaluable in sourcing local suppliers for our solar installation. Thanks to them, we were able to invest with confidence and focus on providing care for North Bradford’s children rather than worrying about whether we’d made the right decision.
