A Midlands energy solutions company is set for expansion after agreeing an £8.2 million funding deal with HSBC 海角视频.
Project Better Energy, a group of businesses that specialise in renewable energy, EV charging and energy savings, will use the investment to develop a new 35,000 sq ft office at its headquarters in Burton on Trent, building on its existing 13,000 sq ft site.
The new premises will enable the group to create 50 new jobs after experiencing an increasing demand for its services, as the 海角视频 works towards its net-zero targets.

Project Better Energy supplies green solutions which help achieve energy efficiency, enabling businesses to decarbonise and reduce running costs.
The organisation has recently partnered with house builders to generate energy-efficient properties across the 海角视频 following legislation that all buildings in England must produce 30 per cent fewer C02 emissions to meet the Homes and Buildings Standard by 2025.
Simon Peat, chief executive at Project Better Energy, said: "We're in a unique position to help businesses and housebuilders, who are under immense pressure to improve energy efficiency in properties to meet 海角视频 Government legislation and targets to reach net-zero.
"Clean energy targets aren't unique to the 海角视频, and we're keen to grow our presence in Europe to help businesses and housebuilders globally improve carbon footprints.
