Ridge Wharf Yacht Centre - Wareham

Ridge Wharf Yacht Centre, a busy marina and marine service facility in Wareham, Dorset, sought to reduce overhead energy costs and improve sustainability across its operations. In 2013, the management team engaged Save Energy UK to deliver a solar PV solution tailored to the site’s energy needs and coastal environment.
