Mark Group is a leader in the UK residential market, offering its approximately two million UK customers energy efficient solar systems, heating systems and insulation products.

"By establishing a direct sales channel in the UK, we are augmenting our existing installation partner network to meet the growing demand for solar in this market. As we rapidly scale our business globally, we see the Mark Group expanding SunEdison's expertise and bandwidth in the consumer energy efficiency market, an excellent complement to our residential and commercial distributed solar business."

"We're really excited to become part of a dynamic and innovative company like SunEdison," said Bill Rumble, Mark Group chief commercial officer. "With this acquisition we now have the opportunity to deliver even greater value to our customers, helping them to enjoy long-term benefits from insulation, solar power and other expertly installed energy products."
