May we wish you and yours all the very best for the Christmas Season and may a more sustainable and more environmentally responsible 2008 emerge.

Our offices will be shut down over the holiday period but we can be contacted on our mobile phones if required. We have completed a number of jobs since the last newsletter and look forward to a busy 2008.

Kingswells Primary School Renewable Energy Challenge

It has become customary for us to support a local school in lieu of sending Christmas cards by post. This year we supported Kingswells Primary School Participate in a renewable energy challenge set by Shell Exploration in Aberdeen and in particular the Nelson Platform.

The challenge was to consider how to power the Shell Office’s Christmas tree lights and build a model. The school researched all aspects of renewable energy and built a fuel cell powered model and a bio fuel model, (a steam engine burning sticks). The teams Duncan’s Energisers and Karbon Kidz came a creditable 3rd. equal.
