THE BRIEF
WHAT WE INSTALLED
232 Modules: Trina Vertex 425W
Inverter: 1 x 66.6K SolarEdge
Optimizers: 116 x P850 SolarEdge
Mounting System: Sunfixings MRD S
Metering Solution: SolarEdge G100
HOW WE DID IT
Our team efficiently managed the installation process, with scaffolding set up on Monday and dismantled by Friday, ensuring minimal impact on the client’s operations. After installation, we identified and addressed network over-voltage issues in collaboration with Northern Powergrid, leading to a swift and successful resolution.
OUR RESULTS
The system generates 80MWh annually, with 66% of the energy consumed on-site and 47% of import demand offset. This results in annual savings of approximately £17,400, delivering significant cost benefits and optimising the poultry unit’s energy efficiency.
