With Scottish accent, a solar company expands to U.S.

Renewable Resources (Energy Solutions) Ltd launched operations in North America to provide roof-mounted solar technology for residential & commercial customers across New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts and Connecticut. 

As a result of Renewable Resources origins in Scotland, the launch is timed to coincide with Tartan Week 2012, a series of events in New York City celebrating Scottish culture and innovation in the United States.

Renewable Resources is partnering with Scottish Development International (SDI), an organization that helps Scottish companies build international presence, to establish operations, which will be headquartered in Stamford, Conn. Renewable Resources and SDI celebrated the official North American launch April 13 with Fergus Ewing MSP, the Scottish Government's Minister for Energy, Enterprise and Tourism. 

As one of the largest solar photovoltaic (PV) installers for commercial rooftops in the UK, Renewable Resources will leverage its unique expertise in PV design and rooftop construction to help customers retrofit their properties with solar energy systems. By switching to solar energy, home owners and businesses can lower energy bills and reduce their carbon footprint.
