Posted by: electime 12th May 2026
HDM Solar, one of the UK’s fastest-growing suppliers of renewable energy products, officially opened its first Scottish branch on Friday 8th May in Livingston at Brucefield Industrial Park West.
The new branch is strategically located to serve installers in Scotland and the North of England with quality products from HDM Solar’s platinum partners, including Astronergy, Fastensol, SolaX, Sungrow, EcoFlow, Rolec, Sunsynk, APsystems, as well as key partners Marley/Viridian and others. The launch event brought together local installers and dignitaries to celebrate the company’s arrival in Scotland. The day’s highlights included a ribbon-cutting by Gregor Poynton MP for Livingston, alongside live demonstrations from industry-leading suppliers.
Installers across the region had the opportunity to network with the HDM Solar team, gain valuable knowledge from a range of solar experts, access exclusive deals and enjoy free refreshments. Attendees also toured the 10,000 sq ft Livingston branch, which is home to an internal sales office, sizable warehouse, and one of HDM Solar’s Renewable Training Centres of Excellence. These purpose-built facilities are set up with roofing rigs and live products for practical learning directly from manufacturers, demonstrating the company’s ongoing commitment to the industry by investing in the upskilling of installers.
Gregor Poynton MP for Livingston said, “In Livingston, and right across West Lothian, we are a growing hub for the green energy economy and creating good jobs, and HDM Solar does that. It’s an opportunity for people to bring down their bills too, and create energy security. More and more people are asking how do I get solar on my roof? How do I get a battery pack? How do I get a heat pump installed? And as a government, we’re now saying, how can we support businesses like HDM Solar, and how can we support people and commercial businesses right across Livingston to install these? Welcome to the area, it’s really exciting to have this open today.”
Stevie Paton, branch manager for Livingston, said, “Covering Scotland and the North of England, our management team combine over 55 years of expertise with a clear commitment to our ‘customer, company, branch’ philosophy—putting our clients’ needs first at every stage.”
Adam Firth, Group CEO of HDM Solar, added, “Scotland has a strong installer community, and opening in Livingston is a major step forward for our business and the installer community. We’ve built HDM Solar around what installers actually need, stock on the ground, fast delivery, technical support and people who understand the industry properly. This branch gives installers across Scotland and the North of England quicker access to products, training and support that help keep projects moving. With order to collection within 20 minutes, next day and same day deliveries, we focus on fast delivery, so when an installer is on a roof and has forgotten something, we can get it to them fast! The Livingston branch also includes one of HDM Solar’s Renewable Training Centres of Excellence, to offer free practical training to support installers. Our drive is to help installers win more work and deliver great installations.”
