    Solar power innovator Power Roll urges businesses to have their say on economic strategy

    A pioneering North East company which creates cutting-edge green technology is urging businesses across County Durham to have their say on a consultation that will shape the area’s economic future.

    Solar power firm Power Roll has created an ultra-thin solar film which can generate and store electricity, producing green power up to 20 times more cheaply than traditional solar technologies.

    The company’s solar film manufacturing facility at Jade Business Park in Murton, near Seaham, is the first in the world to produce low cost, lightweight, flexible solar film using patented micro grove technology. The pilot manufacturing facility will produce next generation solar solutions to support the transition towards a sustainable energy system.

    As a company that is driving green energy solutions, Power Rolls feels it’s crucial that businesses across County Durham have their say on a three-month long consultation to help shape the economic future of the county.
