foggycliff - About Us

Our Story

Founded in 2015, foggycliff emerged from a simple observation: many businesses wanted to reduce their environmental impact but lacked the expertise to navigate the complex landscape of energy efficiency and renewable technology.

What started as a two-person operation has grown into a respected consultancy serving clients across Greater Manchester and the North West. Our team combines engineering expertise with commercial pragmatism, ensuring that every recommendation we make is both environmentally sound and financially viable.
