As part of our on-going commitment to minimise the environmental impact of our work we are happy that our solar array has just been switched on. We already heat our office with renewable energy (wood) but with the number and power of our computer systems our electricity consumption is significant. We monitored our usage and have been taking steps to minimise power drain such as turning off systems when not in use. Based on the power consumption figures the new solar array that we have fitted should generate on average more power than the office consumes on an average day, making us a net contributor to the grid. Its rather good to see the meter spinning backwards when the sun is out.

As you might expect from a technology focused company we have system monitoring over WiFi and we plan to keep track of the power generated by the system on-going. It is thanks to our customers continuing to work with us and new customers joining that we have been able to make this investment, so thank you for choosing to work with Innovation Visual for your search & digital marketing needs.
