“When we came across Newframe’s Solar Glass Canopy, it really stood out, not just for its smart technology but also because it looks great. It’s proof that renewable energy can be both functional and visually striking.

Since we were right on the beach, we were a little nervous about how it would hold up in bad weather. But the week after it was installed, a big storm rolled through, and it didn’t move a millimetre. That was the real test, and it passed with flying colours.

Our customers have been really positive about it too. They love that it’s an environmentally friendly choice but also that it adds to the space rather than looking like an afterthought. We’d definitely consider installing another one at one of our other restaurants. A canopy of this size generates significant power, and we expect it to pay for itself in just over a decade. If energy prices keep rising, that could happen even faster. For us, that means savings in the tens of thousands of pounds.

It’s a brilliant product, and honestly, it looks so much better than traditional roof-mounted solar. We’re really pleased with it.”
