About

Hybrid Energy Solutions is a UK-based research and development company focused on advancing renewable energy systems to improve their affordability, reliability, and sustainability, particularly in high-temperature and challenging operating environments.

Our work is grounded in applied engineering research and real-world validation. We combine academic insight, industrial collaboration, and international field testing to develop technologies that address performance limitations in solar photovoltaic systems and support long-term energy resilience.

Hybrid Energy Solutions has delivered government-funded research projects, including Innovate UK–supported programmes, working in collaboration with universities, research institutions, and industrial partners across the UK, Africa, and the Middle East. Our approach bridges the gap between research and deployment, ensuring that innovations are technically robust, manufacturable, and aligned with real-world needs.

As we progress from validated research into early commercial deployment, our focus remains on developing practical, scalable solutions that contribute to a more resilient and sustainable global energy system.
