Reducing Reliance on the Grid in a New-Build Home
The owners of this new-build property wanted to maximise energy independence from the outset.
Their goal was to incorporate solar generation and battery storage into the home’s long-term energy strategy and minimise reliance on electricity imported from the grid.
A Solar & Battery System Designed for Energy Independence
We designed and installed a 20kWp solar PV system comprising 50 x 450W solar modules, alongside 20kWh of battery storage.
The combination of substantial generation capacity and large-scale battery storage was carefully designed to support the property's ongoing energy requirements and maximise self-consumption of generated electricity.
