Partners

IT Power has alliances with several organisations and also maintains a network of IT Power Associates. IT Power Associates are professionals who we regularly work with, but who are not full time staff members of IT Power.

Additionally, IT Power part-owns the following spin-off companies.

Sustainable Energy Installations (SEI)
Sustainable Energy Installations supplies and installs small-scale renewable energy systems. They offer a fully inclusive service from design through to installation, for solar PV, wind and hydro technologies and is accredited under the UK government grant schemes.
Off-shore Wave Energy Ltd (OWEL)
Offshore Wave Energy Limited (OWEL) is developing a patented Wave Energy Converter (WEC). The concept is an innovative modular device which uses the horizontal component of waves to drive a unidirectional turbine. The WEC has no underwater moving parts, which means it is more reliable and robust, and can be deployed in deep water where the most energetic waves are found.
 
The OWEL WEC is now entering a significant development phase, moving from a feasible design towards a fully developed and marketable device. Independent assessment by QinetiQ, funded by a DTI Smart Award, has confirmed its technical and financial viability. OWEL is now making alliances with strategic industrial partners in order to further develop the technology and secure further R&D funding. The offshore renewable energy business in UK expected to be a £2 billion industry by 2020.
Transenergie
Transenergie is a Lyon based consulting firm specialising in renewable energy (RE), Energy Efficiency (EE) and Demand Side Management (DSM) and it's IT Power's partner in France to jointly develop a global of services in all aspects of sustainable energy, climate change and development goals.
Solar Conservatories
Solar Conservatories Limited has been set up to work on integration of new technologies into conservatories, including PV and electrochromic glazing.
 
SCL has received a SMART award to carry out a feasibility study looking at the integration of PV into conservatories. SMART awards are given by the DTI to stimulate innovation and best practice in small and medium sized businesses and hence improve UK competitiveness. The study aims to resolve the issues involved with integrating PV into a conservatory and has constructed a test conservatory. Monitoring is being carried out over 9 months to determine the effect of the PV on conditions in the conservatory, and the effect of the conservatory conditions on the PV. Simulations are also being carried out and analysis of simulated and monitored data will provide validation of the simulation and hence allow prediction of the effects in a wide range of situations.
