“We’ll then use a multi-power management station to optimise the usage of the solar and battery power.”
The company, which has operated in Romsey for 30 years, specialises in uninterrupted power systems.
It is now developing an integrated solar, battery and energy management system.
Alison Johnston, councillor responsible for climate emergency and countryside at Test Valley Borough Council, said: “It’s fantastic to see a long-standing Romsey company at the forefront of technology.”
