Case Highlights
Keech Hospice provides specialist palliative, respite, and end-of-life care for adults, children, and their families across Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire, and Milton Keynes. The charity supports patients with life-limiting illnesses both at its hospice facilities and in the community, offering medical care, emotional support, and bereavement services — all free of charge. Astronergy has supported Keech Hospice UK with a 220kW rooftop solar PV installation, utilising 504 donated ASTRO N5s n-type modules, helping the charity significantly reduce long-term energy costs while demonstrating how solar can deliver meaningful social value. The solar installation is expected to save Keech Hospice approximately £50,000 per year in electricity costs, with potential for greater savings over time. These reductions will allow the hospice to redirect vital funding towards patient care and essential frontline services.
