This partnership aims to advance energy efficiency standards in new home builds while protecting homeowners from escalating energy costs.
With its end-to-end renewable energy services, UPOWA will provide expertise in the design, product supply, installation, and maintenance of solar PV systems across Redrow’s multiple regional offices.
This collaboration marks a significant stride towards sustainable and future-ready homes, setting a green example for the housing industry.
End-to-end renewable energy services
The partnership will see UPOWA supply its end-to-end renewable energy services to the housebuilder’s Thames Valley, Southern Counties, Southern, Southeast and Southwest regional offices.
As part of the agreement, UPOWA will manage the design, product supply, installation, and maintenance of solar PV systems to help Redrow create energy-efficient new homes that will protect their customers against rising energy costs. And, where there is a need for roof-integrated solar panels, UPOWA will supply its market-leading Inline Solar system, featuring sleek, all-black 400W solar panels.
UPOWA have been working with Redrow’s technical teams to identify the house types and roof elevations that can fit solar, and proposing standardised, cost-effective solutions to meet the new energy efficiency standards.

James Bull, founder and managing director at UPOWA, said: “We are delighted that Redrow has chosen UPOWA as its trusted solar PV partner to help future-proof their developments for the next three years.
“We look forward to supplying a one-stop-shop solar PV solution to ensure Redrow save time and money on meeting the new Part L Regulations and creates high-quality, eco-friendly new homes that reduce energy bills for homeowners.”
Stephen Horridge, head of procurement at Redrow said: “We are committed to further improving the energy efficiency of our homes while maintaining our reputation for best-in-class build quality and design.
“We know how important energy efficiency is to our customers who are looking to reduce their costs and carbon footprint simultaneously.”
