Working with home and business owners to champion the extensive benefits of alternative energy solutions, whether on new builds, traditional properties, heritage conversations or commercial sites.

Our mission is simple: to make the transition to renewable energy as smooth as possible for our customers. The rising costs of energy, concerns about carbon footprints, and the depletion of traditional energy resources are challenges we all face.

Living Our Values
At UK Alternative Energy, sustainability isn’t just something we deliver through the energy products we install; it’s at the heart of everything we do as a business.
From how we operate on a day-to-day basis to the way we engage with our community and customers, every decision we make is guided by our ongoing commitment to creating a greener future.
From small steps – such as minimising waste and recycling as much as possible, from cardboard to pallets (donated to the fire brigade for training exercises) – to relying on renewable technology to reduce our energy consumption and costs, leading by example as well as showcasing to customers exactly how our cutting-edge technology works.
But the team is always striving to take any sustainability efforts beyond our own operations. We’ve also partnered with Zellar to monitor and report on our environmental impact, ensuring transparency and continuous improvement that is accessible to everyone. For example, by taking part in tree planting initiatives in our local area the spaces that matter most to the community are being reforested.
Investing in the next generation
A green future is largely in the hands of the younger generations, which is why knowledge sharing is vital. Whether it’s conversations with our own families or projects with local schools – like installing new LED lighting in classrooms or providing rainwater harvesting tanks – we aim to inspire confidence in green technology and demonstrate its real-world benefits.
1. Corporate Social Responsibility
For us, sustainability goes hand-in-hand with corporate social responsibility.
From litter-picking events in our community to investing in initiatives like beehives – which serve both as a way to support pollinators and as unique gifts for our clients – we strive to make a positive impact on both the environment and the people around us.
2. Honest Advice for Long-Term Change
We understand that transitioning away from fossil fuels is a journey
We’re here to guide our clients every step of the way. Honesty is at the core of our approach; if a solution isn’t right for you, we’ll tell you. Our goal is to build trust and help people make informed, sustainable choices for the long term.
3. Conscious Decisions from Day One
Since our founding, we’ve been conscious of how our actions impact the world around us. Sustainability isn’t just a box to tick – it’s an integral part of who we are as a company.
At UK Alternative Energy, we don’t just believe in renewable energy as a technology – we believe in it as a way of life. Every step we take is about building a brighter, greener future for our planet and the generations to come.
