Company History
The EDC was founded in 1997, in Oulton Broad, Lowestoft. Our
first major milestone was a European Commission 'Thermie' research
project, regarding the development of new wind turbine technologies.
During 1998 we developed our own in-house system design process, since
proven with the successful installation of over 5000 independant power
systems worldwide. We were also the first major UK company to offer
free system design to our clients.
In the years since, the EDC has emerged as one of the UK's leading
off-grid power specialists. Having built up a loyal customer base of
commercial clients, the company has grown steadily.
In 2003 we introduced our 'plug & play' power systems - enabling
the use of local contractors for the installation, rather than sending
our technicians hundreds of miles just to connect a few cables. This
service has proved very popular with commercial clients.
2008 saw the launch of our new website and online webstore - allowing
our clients to order a wide range of specialised goods online. The new
website has been a huge success, averaging over 1800 visitors per day
with the numbers steadily rising.
In early 2009 the EDC moved into new, larger premises which has far
improved workshop and office facilities. We have also been implementing
quality standards, with the aim of acheiving ISO 9001 in the near
future.
We are aiming to open our new Spanish branch of the EDC in mid 2011. We
look forward to working closer with our many clients based in Spain and
the surrounding areas.
