Our team sat down with Sam Wookey, Head of Operations and Maintenance at Ethical Power. An experienced solar engineer, Sam brings practical, on the ground experience to his management style, ensuring the team remains customer focused while delivering data driven and functional solutions.
PES: You recently announced a contract in New Zealand; as a UK based company, how did you end up signing an O&M deal on the other side of the globe?
Sam Wookey: This is a really exciting project for Ethical Power, and not just because of the location. Our Performance Monitoring team has been chosen to take on the SCADA monitoring on two new solar farms, Kaitaia and Edgecumbe. Both of these 33 MW farms are owned by New Zealand renewables company Lodestone Energy, with whom we have a growing pipeline.
