PROJECT STORY
The Challenge
Mrs Kate was keen to do something positive for the environment. She chose solar and battery storage to generate electricity at home and gain greater flexibility over how she uses energy. The installation required careful work on the property’s slate roof, alongside a suitable cable route between the consumer unit and the outdoor inverter.
The Solution
Lunar Solar Limited installed seven AIKO 480 W panels, providing a combined solar capacity of 3.36 kWp, together with a 5 kW RAHVOLT inverter and 10 kWh battery. The battery stores surplus solar electricity for use later. It can also be charged from the grid, allowing Mrs Kate to use stored electricity during the day or evening. With a suitable time-of-use tariff, this offers the opportunity to charge during cheaper periods and reduce electricity purchases at higher rates. Bird-protection netting was fitted around the array to discourage birds from nesting beneath the panels.
Careful Installation And Cable Routing
Lunar Solar Limited handled the project’s applications, design and installation. The team worked carefully with the slate roof and planned a long cable route to the outdoor inverter. The cable was accommodated in trunking, providing a tidy finish. With favourable weather and effective coordination, the installation was completed smoothly over two days.
The Outcome
Mrs Kate now has a solar and battery system that supports her environmental goals while giving her more control over when she draws electricity from the grid. She was very pleased with the completed installation and provided a positive review and testimonial about her experience with Lunar Solar Limited.
