At Zinc Electrical, we don't just install solar energy systems we're committed to creating lasting, positive environmental impacts through our partnership with B1G1. Every installation supports global reforestation, actively offsetting carbon emissions and promoting sustainability.
We understand the environmental concerns associated with manufacturing, transporting, installing, and eventually recycling solar panels, batteries, and EV chargers. That's why we've partnered with B1G1 to plant trees for every system we install, directly addressing and offsetting these impacts.
1 Panel Installed = 1 Tree Planted
1 Battery Installed = 10 Trees Planted
1 EV Charger Installed = 1 Tree Planted
Each mature tree planted absorbs approximately 1,920 kg of CO₂ over its lifetime:
Solar Panel: Generates about 300 kg of CO₂ during manufacturing, installation, and recycling.
Battery: Generates about 2,600 kg of CO₂ during its lifecycle.
EV Charger: Generates about 100 kg of CO₂ during its lifecycle.
By planting trees corresponding to each component installed, we ensure your solar investment becomes truly climate positive, offsetting carbon footprints many times over.
Carbon Offset: A single tree offsets the entire carbon footprint of one solar panel, battery, or charger within approximately 10-15 years, continuing to absorb carbon for decades afterward.
Lifetime Impact: Over the lifetime of your solar installation, your contribution through Zinc Electrical and B1G1 provides measurable, significant positive environmental impact.
🌿 Worked Example:
For a system comprising of 10 Solar Panels, 10kWh Battery and EV Charger. 21 trees would be planted.
These trees collectively absorb approximately 40,320 kg of CO₂ over their lifetimes, significantly surpassing the carbon footprint of your solar system.
Professional, Personalised Service: Every project is managed and installed personally by Oliver Lees, ensuring high standards and quality.
Comprehensive Coverage: From custom design and certifications to ongoing monitoring and support, Zinc Electrical delivers complete peace of mind.
