Ep 110: What Deploying an Onsite Energy System Actually Requires

from Renewable Rides · host Gareth Evans & Dan Roberts

Is installing an onsite energy system going to overwhelm your team? Or is that fear overblown? In this episode, we unpack one of the most common concerns businesses have when considering solar and energy systems: how much work is actually involved. You’ll learn what happens once a system is up and running, what your team is (and isn’t) responsible for, and why most companies don’t need to become energy experts to make this work.Listen in as we break down where the real effort lies. From aligning internal stakeholders to choosing the right commercial model, you’ll learn how to avoid costly mistakes and streamline the process from day one. Plus, we explore how outages, market volatility, and energy reliance are shaping smarter decisions, as well as why taking control of your energy strategy might be easier—and more valuable—than you think.What You’ll Learn in Today’s Episode:What’s required after an energy system is installed.Why most systems are low maintenance.How operations & maintenance contracts work.Why your team doesn’t need to be energy experts.The real effort required before installation.How to align stakeholders early.Common mistakes that slow projects down.Why energy reliability is becoming critical.How to simplify decision-making with the right process.Resources in Today's Episode:Gareth Evans: LinkedInDan Roberts: LinkedInVECKTA: NewsYou can view a video of the conversation on VECKTA's website here: https://tinyurl.com/22v7p2s3

Renewable Energy and the UK - for iPod/iPhone The Open University The EU has set ambitious targets for both renewable energy and carbon reduction, but the UK has been reluctant to sign up to new targets beyond 2020. How does the UK Government plan to tackle this problem and what targets is it considering? Quick Spin Autoweek You love cars. We do, too. Tune into Quick Spin, the short-form podcast that takes you into the car with Autoweek editors as they deliver honest reviews of the best rides in the world from the inside out. Earth's physical resources: renewable energy - for iPod/iPhone The Open University As the world responds to climate change, we explore whether sustainable energy can satisfy our need for endless economic growth, without radical changes in the way we live. This album examines power sources which provide cleaner alternatives to fossil fuels, such as wind power, biomass, hydro power, wave and tidal power, solar and geothermal power. The nine video tracks introduce the different approaches adopted in Britain and across Europe, the challenges faced and the projects of the future.
