Shavington Leisure Centre – 83.25 kWp

Shavington Leisure Centre – 83.25 kWp

This 83.25 kWp solar PV system is one of the many installations we have done in the North West for Everybody Leisure recently. The solar PV system took place on top of one of the sports hall roofs and consisted of a huge 222 x LR4-60HPH-375M solar panels with 111 x P730 optimizers connecting to two solar panels each. We installed one SolarEdge 82.8K inverter inside the leisure centre which was then wired up through the roof to connect to the solar panels. This installation has saved 19 tones of CO2 emissions, which is equivalent to 873 trees, making the leisure centre eco-friendly and set up perfectly for the future.

Sandbach Leisure Centre – 93.15 kWp Solar PV System

Another one of Everybody Sport & Recreation leisure centres have gone solar. This time at Sandbach Leisure Centre made up of 207 x Longi Solar, LR4-72HPH-450M solar panels with 104 x Solar Edge P950 optimizer which is connected to two solar panels each. We also installed 1 x SolarEdge 82.8K inverter which completed 93.15 kWp system. This system is predicted to produce around 74.86 MWh of energy every year, according to SolarEdge Designer and will be saving 21.04 tones of CO2 emissions which is equivalent to 966 trees being planted.

Why Going Solar Can Help Your Leisure Centre

Going solar can really help a leisure centre as they have to power a huge amount of electronic fitness equipment throughout the day and in some cases day and night as some are open 24/7 for people who can’t make it at usual peak times for whatever reason. This means there needs to be a constant supply of power to the leisure centre at all times, which solar energy can do because you can store your generated energy.

Sandbach Leisure Centre

Sandbach Leisure Centre opened in January 1976 and is situated just outside Sandbach town centre, the centre is equipped to provide health, fitness and social activities to suit everyone. They have a wide range of fitness classes, a 25 metre swimming pool, the Everybody fitness suite, squash courts and much more.

Salesbury Church of England School – Blackburn

Salesbury Church of England School – Blackburn

In the summer we traveled up to Blackburn to install a 46.72 kWp solar PV system for one of the local schools (Salesbury Church of England School). The 128 x 365W Mono MBB Percium Half-Cell All Black solar panels were separated across 4 different roofs as the size of the system required would not fit onto one roof as the dimensions were not big enough. There were 64 x P801 optimizers that connected to two solar panels each. They were all wired up to the SolarEdge30K which was installed inside the school away from students. The energy that the system will produce annually is predicted to be around 34.65 MWh. The system isn’t just saving money on their electricity bills but they are also helping the environment by lowering their carbon footprint. The system will be saving around 8.07 tonnes of Co2 emmisons which is equivalent to planting 371 trees.

Above you can see two pie charts, the one on the left shows the amount of energy production the system is getting from the arrays and the one on the right shows the total energy consumption of the school per year so by seeing this you can gather that the school will be saving just over half the money on their electricity bills per year.

Residential Renewable Technology Installation in Warrington

Residential Renewable Technology Installation in Warrington

This house in Warrington had various renewable technologies installed a couple of years ago and we have recently visited to get the completed installation footage due to the effect of Covid19. The customer had a 4.36 kWp solar PV system installed on the roof of his home consisting of 13 x SunPower, X21-335-BLK solar panels, 13 x P500 optimizers, and 1 x SolarEdge3680H inverter. The system was installed to produce clean energy to power the customer’s home and save money on electricity bills. The image below shows the estimated amount of energy that should be produced by the solar PV system every month of the year. It rises in the summer due to more sunlight.

Overall the system is estimated to produce 3.99 MWh of energy every year and save around 929.43 kilograms of Co2 emissions every year which is equivalent to 43 trees.

Customers Review

“From start to finish Genfit have been very professional and efficient. The installation itself went very smoothly and everyone was very helpful and informative on the set up.”

“The couple of teething problems we had were dealt with quickly and with no hesitation.”

“I am particularly impressed with the aftercare help as Genfit has been available for discussions at any time.”

“The electrical installation has been complemented by several professional electricians visiting for other jobs on the house.”

“I have no hesitation in recommending Genfit from my experience of them.”

Tesla Powerwall

We installed the Tesla Powerwall in the garage of the customer’s home so that they could store the energy being produced from the solar PV system.

You are assured of energy security and a clean energy lifestyle. Powerwall allows you to store 14 kWh of energy and use that energy to run your home with solar during the night and back up your home in the event of a power outage.

Powerwall reduces your reliance on the grid by storing your solar energy for use when the sun isn’t shining. Use Powerwall alone or combine it with other Tesla products to save money, reduce your carbon footprint and prepare your home for power outages.

Zappi Charger

We installed a Zappi Charger on the right-hand side of the customer’s home. This is because it was a suitable length to reach their electric vehicle on their drive.

Zappi is a smart EV charger with a difference. Not only does it operate as a standard EV charger, but it also has optional charging modes to utilise 100% GREEN energy generated from your Solar PV or wind generation.  Increasing the Return On Investment (ROI) for your panels and electric car, the Zappi is easy to install and user friendly.

Being the first-ever EV charger of its kind, our innovative team has carefully designed features and functions to give you complete control of your electric car charging experience. Paired with the myenergi app, you can set timers to utilise economy tariffs, use the boost function, monitor your devices, and so much more!

Macclesfield Leisure Centre – 119.25 kWp Solar PV System

Macclesfield Leisure Centre – 119.25 kWp Solar PV System

Back in the summer, we started various jobs in the Cheshire East mainly completing solar PV installations for Leisure Centres. This 119.25 kWp Solar PV System was installed for Macclesfield Leisure Centre to generate energy for the swimming pool and gym area as well as saving money on their electricity bills and becoming an eco-friendly leisure centre. The system was installed on the main roof of the building consisting 318 x Longi Solar, LR4-60HPH-375M solar panels which were split apart due to some vents on the roof. We also used 159 x P730 optimizers and 1 x 3 phase SolarEdge 82.8K inverter in this installation as a 3 phase is more suitable for commercial projects.

The system is estimated to produce 97.21 MWh of energy every year and saves 22.65 tonnes of carbon emissions which is equivalent to over a thousand trees.
