Harmony Energy Income Trust (HEIT) owns that, I had not noticed them before, I'll have to add that to my watch list for my ISA.

I like how they lash a few temporary panels up for when they are doing the builds, doesn't have to be neat, just get em up there. Saves a bit on the diesel genny. :mrgreen:

I would love a system like that where the panels slid behind each other - so easy to put away when the winds gale force. Got a bit of a design using unistrut and rollers but just need time to dabble with it some more
