Powering Reel Cinema with Renewable Energy

Genfit has delivered a 125 kWp rooftop solar PV system at Reel Cinema, designed to generate clean, renewable electricity while reducing the site’s reliance on grid power. The installation comprises 236 solar panels, 120 SolarEdge optimisers, and 1 inverter, delivering up to 90 kW of AC power to support the cinema’s daytime energy demand. Based on detailed performance modelling, the system is expected to generate approximately 105 MWh of renewable electricity every year, helping to lower operational energy costs and improve long-term sustainability. The installation will also save around 20 tonnes of CO₂ emissions annually, the equivalent of planting approximately 950 trees each year. By transforming unused roof space into a productive energy asset, Reel Cinema is taking a significant step towards a more sustainable future while demonstrating how entertainment venues can benefit from on-site renewable energy generation.

Empowering Education with Solar at Aston Lodge School, Sheffield

Last year, Genfit completed a solar PV installation at Aston Lodge School in Sheffield, as part of an ongoing collaboration with Wickersley Partnership Trust to deliver renewable energy solutions across multiple schools in the region.

The system features advanced SolarEdge technology, combining smart inverter control and real-time monitoring to maximise energy generation and performance. With a total installed DC power of 42.4 kWp, the system achieves a maximum AC output of 30 kW and produces approximately 35.59 MWh of clean energy each year. This saves around 6.88 tonnes of CO₂ annually — the equivalent of planting 316 trees every year.

The installation has helped Aston Lodge School reduce its energy costs and carbon footprint, freeing up valuable funds that can be reinvested into education and school facilities, while also contributing to the Trust’s wider sustainability objectives.

As part of the project, Genfit’s Project Manager visited the school to deliver an interactive talk, showing pupils how solar energy works and how their new system helps power classrooms with clean, renewable electricity.

Through its partnership with Wickersley Partnership Trust, Genfit continues to support schools across Sheffield and Rotherham in their transition to a greener future — making energy simple, sustainable, and educational.

Key Benefits for Aston Lodge School
