The off-grid renewable power and lighting specialist has appointed Rachel Preen as its Managing Director

Preen joined Prolectric in 2021 as Commercial Director to build on the company’s outstanding reputation in the off-grid renewable lighting and power sector, following a six-year post as Head of Marketing, Business Development & Commercial Partnerships, with energy company Ecotricity.

With full responsibility for the leadership and development of Prolectric’s off-grid solar power technology business, Preen’s new role will be instrumental in driving forward the company’s ambition for purpose-led sustainable growth. 

Preen said: “I’m thrilled to be given the opportunity to lead such a talented and ambitious team at Prolectric who are passionate about providing off-grid, solar technology to the construction, national house building, infrastructure and rail industries. Together, our mission is to provide solar hybrid power and lighting solutions in the most practical way, to enable businesses to move away from polluting fossil fuels to achieve their carbon saving goals and deliver on their sustainability commitments.”

January 2023 sees the launch of a new rental partner business, ProRehire. As the specialist rehire division of Prolectric, ProRehire will support the rental industry to respond to the increasing demand for our solar products and help end users consolidate their supplier base. ProRehire will exclusively hire full suite of sustainable power, lighting, and security products to rental partners and no longer hire direct to end users.
