HAMILTON-based Procast Group has secured a deal to become a key installer of domestic air source heat pumps for ScottishPower.
The principal contractor will support customers across Scotland looking to upgrade and decarbonise heating systems in their homes.
The deal marks the first time Procast has worked with ScottishPower as one of its heat pump installers, as the energy company intensifies efforts to roll out zero carbon heat technologies across the UK.
ScottishPower has installed over 4,000 heat pumps in customer homes to date. By expanding its network of qualified installers, the company aims to drive growth of the UK’s heat pump market further.
Many of these installations benefited from government grants including the Boiler Upgrade Scheme and Energy Companies Obligation 4 (ECO4).
Derek Innes, owner and MD of Procast Group, said, “Working with a household name such as ScottishPower is a landmark deal for Procast as we look to continue to expand our operations. Our commitment to innovations and clean heating technology is unrivalled and this partnership with ScottishPower is testament to the reputation we have built up as a market leader in this area. We are dedicated to providing exemplary service to ScottishPower and their customers looking to install this increasingly vital domestic technology.”
Eileen Anderson, commercial development manager at ScottishPower, added, “We are delighted to bring Procast Group on board to help customers decarbonise their homes. ScottishPower has already installed thousands of heat pumps across Scotland, England and Wales, and continue to make a difference to customers, helping them access government-funded schemes and remove any financial barriers where possible. We’re looking forward to working with Procast Group, as they offer a professional, smooth heat pump installation process to all our customers undertaking their home decarbonisation journey.”
