History

Established in 1994, GB-Sol is an independent UK company, manufacturing solar PV panels and mounting systems at our spacious factory just north of Cardiff.  A spin-out from Cardiff University, GB-Sol has been at the forefront of solar power generation for several decades.  Today, we continue to lead in the application of solar through our stunning roof-integrated solar power systems, ruggedised panels, marine applications and lightweight flexible panels.

Energy efficiency & carbon emissions

We minimise our carbon footprint, keep our suppliers as local as possible, use recycled aluminium and minimise our packaging.  Our factory has a 30kW solar PV array on the roof, providing much of the power needed and also long-term testing of products in development.  GB-Sol has been rated the top solar supplier in the Ethical Consumer magazine for many years.
