London: A small cleantech firm in south-east England has secured a GBP 4 million order to supply its technology to a projected 2.0-gigawatt solar facility in Mundra Gujarat , according to a top company official. It was backed by UK Export Finance UKEF ), the UK government's export credit agency, with a GBP 475,000 guarantee issued under its Bond Support Scheme that helped secure the Indian order. "Building on our existing export successes, support from Lloyds Banks and UKEF helped us to secure this latest growth opportunity and further develop our established international presence. I look forward to commissioning our machinery by the end of 2023," said Rob Grant, CEO and founder of GR2L. This process requires vast amounts of argon, with some producers needing to ship in multiple tankers of the gas each day.
