Solar Energy & LED project at Princes Street Dental Care

We’re helping reduce Dorset’s carbon footprint by installing ‘Solar Energy Panels’ and ‘LED based lighting’ in our dental practice ‘ Princes Street Dental Care’ in Dorchester. Our project has been part funded by Low Carbon Dorset as part of the European Regional Development Fund and will save in total 4.66 tonnes of CO2 a year- 2.9 tonnes by using LED energy saving lighting and 1.76 tonnes by using Solar Energy!
