This is one of the recent integrated roof installations we have completed close to our site in Chester. The customer was getting a new roof fitted and decided to get solar panels integrated into the roof before the roofers came to lay the slate around the solar panels. The solar PV system consisted of 14 x LG Electronics Inc., LG375N1K-E6 (Neon H Black) solar panels as well as the same amount of P401 optimizers and 1 X SolarEdge 3680H inverter.

The image above shows the amount of energy that the system is predicted to produce every month of the year which comes to an overall of 4.76 MWh  The system will save around 1.11 tonnes of carbon emissions which is equivalent to 51 trees being planted.

Over the past few weeks, we have been installing various renewable technologies for a home in St Helens. We installed a 5.28 kWp Solar PV System on the roof of the back of the house as the owner had a solar PV system already installed on the front of the house previously. The system consisted of 16 JA Solar, JAM60S17-330 solar panels which have an efficiency of 19.6%. We also required the same amount of SolarEdge P401 optimizers to connect to each solar panel and one SolarEdge 5000H Inverter which was installed in the outer house. The system is estimated to produce 3.34 MWh of energy every year and saves around 778.06kg of carbon emissions which is equivalent to 36 trees.

This 6.66 kWp Solar PV System was our first ever ground-mounted installation and we are proud of how it turned out and are fully equipped to install more in the future. So if you are looking at investing in a ground mounted Solar PV System to power your home, make sure you get in contact today and we will be happy to assist you with your queries.

Certain roof types are unable to hold solar panels so a ground mounted Solar PV System could be a suitable option for some of you out there. If you are lucky enough to have a larger garden or field and looking to go solar you may want to look at creating your own solar farm to produce as much solar energy as possible.

The system was installed at the backend of the customer’s back garden and was implemented into the ground using a drill to drive the mounting kit into the ground. The system consisted of 18 x Longi Solar, LR4-60HPH-370M black frame solar panels as well as 18 x P401 optimizers connecting to one solar panel each which is what we do for most residential projects. For commercial projects, on the other hand we spilt one optimizer between 2 solar panels as most commercial jobs are much larger systems. The solar panels are facing south, so the system can receive the maximum amount of sunlight so it can produce the maximum amount of energy possible to power the home and swimming pool facility of the customer. The system is wired underneath the surface through a pipe system that runs from the bottom of the garden all the way to the house. We wired the system up to the outer house where the SolarEdge5000H inverter and Tesla Powerwall were due to be installed.

The system is estimated to produce 6.81 MWh of energy every calendar year but this can all change depending on what kind of weather we are getting. The customer is also be helping the environment by having this installation as well as producing his own clean energy as the system saves around 1.59 tonnes of C02 emission which is equivalent to 73 trees being planted.
