“We have worked with Planet A on a number of educational and training initiatives related to sustainable energy systems and Planet A demonstrate keen insights into the energy landscape. Recently the university commissioned Planet A to design and deliver a short, CPD-type course focused on renewable energy systems integration whereby Planet A did a fantastic job with this course. Feedback from attendees and employers was great I am keen to thank Planet A for their contributions. I have no hesitation in recommending Planet A to deliver engineering and training solutions.”

“The technical expertise in energy solutions and modelling, as well as the exceptional project management and collaborative working that the Planet A team delivered, meant that WREN were able to deliver the outcomes and meet the aims of the Net Zero Communities project for our client, National Grid Electricity Distribution. The work that Planet A completed underpinned all of the decisions made around viable net zero options for our community, new community business models and the development of the Future Energy System Tool, which is now being used by community energy groups across England & Wales. The Planet A team are true professionals in what they do and I look forward to having the opportunity to work with them again in the future.”

Kristy BattistaCTO, Allume Energy
“Under a research project run by the University of Exeter in Cornwall across 2024, I worked with Planet A on development and delivery of a new professional education programme. The course was focused on Integrated Energy Systems in the Built Environment, aimed at developing sustainability skills towards the future green economy for individuals in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. Both Amanda and Dave were fantastic to work with. They are highly professional, experienced and knowledgeable across their sector. I found them to have a proactive, practical and solution-focused approach. And they really pulled out all the stops to deliver what was needed within very limited timeframes! We collaborated twice on delivering two cohorts successfully through the course, receiving highly positive feedback from learners.
I very much hope to continue working in collaboration with Planet A going forward!”
