Client - Solar PV Panels in Folkestone – Single Family Home
Solar PV Panels installers in Kent:
The goal of this solar PV panel installation in Kent was to reduce dependency on grid supplied electricity, lower monthly electricity bills, increase home's value and sustainability, ultimately generate clean, renewable energy.
During our initial solar panel consultation with the client, we factored in the following; roof size and orientation (south-facing roofs are ideal!), electricity consumption history, taking into consideration the parameters of the clients budget.
System Components:
Solar Panels: 16 Longi High-efficiency silicon all black mono 430W panels were installed, capturing sunlight, and converting it to direct current (DC) electricity.
Inverter: The My Energy Libbi 5kW inverter converts the DC electricity from the panels into usable alternating current (AC) electricity which is used instead of paying for incoming electricity.
Monitoring System: My Energy Inverter.
Battery Storage: My Energy 5kW of battery storage.
Project Timeline:
Week 1: Discussion with Reina over project goals.
Week 2: Price Agreed- Pre-Design underway and installation date agreed.
Week 3: Installation underway
