Residential Solar Panels Case Study 3: Solar Power in Woodbridge
Introduction
Richard, a homeowner in Rendlesham, Woodbridge, UK, was looking for ways to reduce his reliance on the National Grid and generate clean, renewable energy for his home. He contacted NXTGEN Energy to explore the feasibility of installing a solar PV system.
Solar Project Details
Solar Solution
NXTGEN Energy Solar Energy Specialist Bobby proposed a 10.44 kW solar PV system tailored to Richard’s specific needs and roof characteristics.
Here’s a breakdown of the key components:
- 24 Jinko Tiger Neo 435W N-Type All Black Mono solar panels: These sleek, high-efficiency solar panels boast an impressive 21.4% efficiency rating, meaning they convert a larger portion of sunlight into usable electricity. Their all-black design also adds a modern aesthetic to Richard’s roof.
- Growatt SPH 6kW Dual MPPT Hybrid Inverter: This versatile inverter acts as the brain of the solar PV system, converting the DC electricity generated by the panels into AC electricity for his home appliances. Its dual MPPT technology ensures optimal solar energy harvesting even in challenging shading conditions.
- Comprehensive Monitoring System: Richard can keep track of his energy production and consumption in real-time through a dedicated meter and monitoring system. This allows him to optimize his energy usage and maximize the benefits of his solar PV system.
- MCS Accreditation:Â The system meets the high standards set by the Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS), guaranteeing its quality and eligibility for UK government incentives like the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) scheme.
Solar Results
- Reduced Carbon Footprint: By generating clean energy, the solar PV system is projected to save Richard about 1,600 kg of CO2 (carbon dioxide) emissions annually. This is equivalent to planting 78 new trees or driving about 6,000 miles in a diesel car.
- Financial Savings: With an estimated payback period of 5 years, the solar PV system is expected to save Richard money on his electricity bills over the long term. Additionally, the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) Scheme payments from exporting excess solar energy to the National Grid will further boost his financial gains.
- Increased Energy Independence:Â This solar system provides Richard with a reliable source of clean energy, reducing his dependence on the National Grid and empowering him to take control of his energy consumption today, tomorrow and in the future.
More Details
To get a closer look at Richard’s solar journey, let’s delve into some specific details:
- Roof Diagrams: The free no-obligation quote from NXTGEN Energy included diagrams of Richard’s east & west-facing roof sections, showcasing the planned layout of the 24 panels. This visualization helped him understand how the solar PV system would be integrated into his home.
- Sunpath Diagrams: These diagrams illustrated the amount of sunlight each solar panel would receive throughout the year, factoring in factors like shading from nearby trees or buildings. This transparency helped Richard understand potential variations in energy production.
- Performance Calculations: The free no-obligation quote provided a detailed breakdown of the expected energy output of the solar PV system, considering factors like location, solar panel orientation, and shading. This level of transparency instilled confidence in Richard’s investment.
- Environmental Benefits: The quote went beyond simply stating CO2 (carbon dioxide) reduction. It quantified the impact by comparing Richard’s current emissions with the projected savings, using relatable analogies like car miles driven and trees planted. This personalises the environmental benefit of his solar PV system choice.
Conclusion
This case study demonstrates the power of a well-designed and installed solar PV system like the one implemented for Richard in Rendlesham, Woodbridge, UK. By choosing a reputable MCS Certified company like NXTGEN Energy and opting for high-quality components, homeowners can achieve significant environmental & financial benefits while gaining greater energy independence. Richard’s story serves as an inspiration for others in Woodbridge and beyond to explore the possibilities of solar power and join the clean energy revolution.
