David's home

Introduction to the project

David's home in Hilton, Derbyshire, recently got a powerful upgrade: a 6.6 kW solar PV system with battery storage installed on his roof. Designed to save both money and the environment, this project promises to deliver significant energy savings for years to come.

The installation process

From the moment the panels arrived, the installation team could feel the potential. Despite a few curious neighbors and one or two misplaced tools, the job went smoothly. Thanks to the top-notch coordination of our installers, the system was up and running in record time.

Harnessing energy in any weather

With 15 solar panels working together, this system is designed to capture as much sunlight as possible—even on those famously cloudy British days. The panels, optimally positioned with a slight tilt to maximize sunlight exposure, ensure steady energy generation throughout the year.

Technology behind the scenes

The setup includes state-of-the-art Jinko Solar 425 Watt panels and a robust Lux Power GEN-LB-EU 6K inverter. These components work in harmony to efficiently convert sunlight into usable energy for the home. The 9.4 kWh Hanchu ESS battery stores excess energy for later use, ensuring that no sunlight goes to waste.

Benefits beyond the bill

Beyond the clear financial savings, the installation has a positive environmental impact, offsetting 1,000 kg of CO₂ emissions annually—equivalent to planting 230 trees or avoiding 26 long-haul flights from England to Madrid every year!

Looking ahead

David can look forward to over £1,737 in annual savings, a forecasted payback period of just 7 years, and decades of reduced energy bills. Even when the sun isn't shining, his battery system steps in to ensure a constant supply of clean energy.

Closing thoughts

This installation is more than just a few panels on a roof—it's a step towards a sustainable future. With this new system, David is not only saving money but also contributing to a cleaner planet. It's a win-win!
