Our Story

Founded on a Vision of Practical Sustainability

Established in Liverpool in 2016, stormy-orchard grew from a simple observation: many businesses wanted to reduce their environmental impact but found the path forward confusing and overwhelming.

Our founding team, with backgrounds spanning energy engineering, business strategy, and environmental science, set out to bridge that gap. We translate complex energy concepts into clear, actionable plans that make financial and environmental sense.

Today, we serve clients across Liverpool, Manchester, and the wider North West region, from small retail operations to large industrial facilities. Our approach remains consistent: understand each client's unique situation, provide honest assessments, and deliver practical solutions that generate measurable results.

Our Principles

Values That Guide Our Work

Integrity First

We provide honest assessments even when they're not what clients expect to hear. Our recommendations are based on evidence, not sales targets.

Measurable Impact

Every solution we propose comes with clear projections. We track outcomes and refine our approaches based on real-world performance data.

Long-Term Thinking

We design solutions that will remain effective as technology and regulations evolve. Short-term fixes rarely serve our clients' interests.
