Porsche Centre Preston - Battery Repair Centre
Project: Warehouse Conversion into Porsche Battery Repair Centre
Client: Porsche Centre Preston
Location: Preston, Lancashire
We are proud to have successfully delivered a full warehouse transformation for Porsche Centre Preston, converting an ageing industrial unit into a modern, purpose-built battery repair and service facility.
The brief was to create a future-ready workshop that met Porsche’s standards for quality, safety, sustainability and performance — while providing a highly efficient working environment for technicians.
Project Scope
The project involved a complete refurbishment and upgrade of the existing warehouse, including:
- New structural floor, roof and external cladding to create a clean, durable and insulated working environment
- Full workshop fit-out designed specifically for high-voltage battery repair operations
- High-efficiency LED lighting throughout for optimal visibility and reduced energy consumption
- Installation of EV charging infrastructure to support Porsche’s growing electric vehicle range
- Roof-mounted solar PV system to reduce running costs and improve sustainability credentials
The Result
The completed facility is now a state-of-the-art battery repair centre, future-proofed for the next generation of Porsche electric vehicles. The building delivers:
- A premium working environment for technicians
- Improved energy efficiency and lower operational costs
- A clean, modern and professional appearance aligned with the Porsche brand
- Infrastructure ready for continued EV growth
This project is another example of our ability to deliver complex, high-specification commercial installations for prestige automotive brands — from design and compliance through to final commissioning.

The Grange - Solar & Battery Installation
Project: Solar PV & Battery Storage Installation
Client: Private Residential Client
Location: Wrea Green, Lancashire
We successfully delivered a high-performance renewable energy solution for a residential property in Wrea Green, designed to significantly reduce electricity costs while future-proofing the home for rising energy demand.
The client wanted a system that would maximise self-generated energy, reduce reliance on the grid, and provide long-term protection against increasing electricity prices — without compromising on performance or reliability.
Project Scope
The installation included a fully integrated renewable energy system, comprising:
- 16kW floor-mounted solar PV array to generate clean, renewable electricity throughout the year
- 40kW battery storage system to store excess solar generation for use during evenings and peak tariff periods
- Smart energy management system to optimise battery charging, discharge and grid usage
- Full electrical integration with the existing supply and distribution system
- System monitoring via app-based control for real-time performance tracking
The Result
The completed system now delivers:
- Significant reductions in monthly electricity bills
- Increased energy independence and protection from rising tariffs
- Efficient use of self-generated solar power day and night
- A future-ready energy platform capable of supporting EV charging and heat pumps
This project demonstrates our ability to design and install large-scale domestic renewable systems that perform to commercial standards — delivering long-term financial and environmental benefits for homeowners.
