Local businesses gain work as they build the Solasyphon for Willis Renewable Energy Systems

Innovation is at the heart of sustainability. Yet often that innovation is about enhancing what we have already got. The Solasyphon is a perfect example. A plumbing innovation that speeds up and simplifies the retro-fitting of solar water heating in existing homes, it saves the cost and carbon impact of buying a new water tank. So far 1,300 Solasyphons have been sold and there is strong interest from companies as far afield as the US and New Zealand.
