Sunotec UK Limited, a company specialising in large-scale solar energy projects, has recently introduced Motorola T82 Extreme radios to improve communication across one of its solar PV sites, which spans approximately 44 hectares. With a large team operating over such a wide area, effective communication is vital to maintaining site safety, coordination, and efficiency. The radios are now used daily by traffic marshalls and the site management team to stay connected while moving around the site, ensuring that work can continue smoothly and any issues can be addressed quickly.

As this was Sunotec UK Limited’s first project requiring two-way radios, finding a solution that was both dependable and easy to use was a key priority. The T82s have quickly proven to be a valuable addition to the operation. According to Kevin Rodgers, Health and Safety Manager at Sunotec UK Limited, the radios are used continuously from 9am through to 5pm each day and have performed exceptionally well. Kevin described them as “good radios and easy to use”, highlighting their reliability and strong performance in challenging outdoor conditions.

Kevin also shared his experience of purchasing from Radio Solutions, describing it as excellent. He praised the team’s professionalism and the straightforward nature of the buying process. Although the remote site location meant that delivery took several attempts, Kevin noted that the team at Radio Solutions were helpful throughout and ensured the equipment was delivered safely.

The Motorola T82s were rated 5/5, having been recommended to Sunotec prior to purchase. They have delivered clear communication and dependable performance, helping staff to coordinate safely and efficiently across the large site. This has not only improved day-to-day operations but has also contributed to maintaining high safety standards, which remain a top priority for the business.

Radio Solutions is proud to support companies like Sunotec UK Limited, where reliable communication systems play an essential role in ensuring the safety, productivity, and success of renewable energy projects.
